“I would say 1A, 1B, myself and Michael,” Woods said. “He’s more, I think, outwardly competitive than I am. But I have my tendencies to be a little competitive at times.”

Tiger has seen MJ’s fighting spirit closely on the basketball court as a spectator and on the golf course as a competitor. He even played golf with him on the day of a playoff game in 1997. 

“They were playing the Knicks in the ECF,” the 15-time major championship winner explained. “I went up there and hung out with him for a few days. It was neat to be a part of…the mindset—I can relate to that. I can relate to the intensity.”
