American author’s surprising shift from a critic to an admirer 

The author of ‘LIV and Let Die,‘ Alan Shipnuck, has been in the buzz lately because of his comments on Tiger Woods’ TGL. The writer has raised questions about its originality and claimed that TGL came about as a result of Woods’ rivalry with LIV. This, in a way, means that LIV birthed TGL. 

Now, after taking a shot at Woods in the past, Shipnuck has made another statement, but this time praising the golfer. In a tweet on his X handle, the author posted a video of Woods from the greens, where the legend is seen walking with his son at the National Championship’s Last Chance Regional in Florida. 

Shipnuck’s tweet reads: “Tiger’s rebuilt foot appears to be significantly more functional!” The statement is made in relation to the subtalar fusion procedure that Woods underwent to address his post-traumatic arthritis that was a result of a previous talus fracture. 

Shipnuck’s takes on Woods in the past have been pretty critical. The author has often talked about the legend in terms of comparing his achievements and his position to his PGA Tour rivals. Now, this new message has left the fans speculating something afresh.

While the golf world makes sense of this new occurrence, here’s a look at what the author has previously said concerning Woods and Rory McIlroy’s tech-savvy TGL lately. 

Alan Shipnuck’s controversial TGL vs LIV claims

TGL is about to debut in January, and controversies have already started to surround this new golf league. American author Alan Shipnuck, in a recent claim, suggested that TGL might be a rip-off of Greg Norman’s LIV Golf. 

Shipnuck took to X (previously Twitter) and quoted a tweet that elaborated on TGL’s playing format. The author insinuated that TGL’s format resembles that of LIV Golf and hinted at similarities in their strategies to attract young and new fans. The author thus made a statement that claimed that TGL was a rip-off of LIV Golf. 

As of late, Shipnuck’s claims have been a conversation starter in the pro golfing silo. Now, as both leagues prepare to compete after TGL’s debut, the golfing community eagerly anticipates the outcome, wondering which league will set its foundation strong in the world of professional golf.
