When asked about how Richard Williams handled their daughter’s tennis career. Tiger Woods’ father, Earl Woods, said, “I’ve never met the man, never talked to him. I’ve only observed him from afar. But I will say this: If I was those girls’ father, I would do things totally different. I would realize my shortcomings as a teacher and not want to have that impair the growth and development of my kids.” 

Further, he added, “I would get a true professional to teach them, so that they could get the most of their potential. It’s a disservice to them not to give them the best opportunity for development in the game.”
