Did anyone catch Tiger Woods on Jay Leno last night? (Oct.12)

I found him pretty entertaining. It's nice to see him in a non-competitive atmosphere. When he's laid back, he comes across as having a good sense of humour. He was there in part for the release of EA sports Tiger Woods 2007 (which looks pretty good, they re-did his swing for the new version of the game).

I got a kick out Jay asking Tiger, 'Really, how hard is it to win 6 events in a row?'

I watched some of that, and then the next day I watched him on Ellen in the Pro Shop. He was definitely more talkative on Jay I think. He hit some balls on Ellen, but actually connected (on a very small level) with Jay maybe because he was a guy?

Tiger was good on Leno. I think that he's a fun loving guy but knows how much the media could eat him up if he lets them get too close.

Jay is funny and has a knack for loosening people up so that they can talk.

He is doing the media circuit. He was also on Ellen, I missed the episode but supposedly he was doing some trick shots, Ellen had a bit of game. It's nice to see the other side of Tiger once and a while.

    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.

    • Thanks man, sometimes it’s hard to improve bc when I’m not feeling comfortable I don’t like practicing bc I get frustrated. Any advice?
