Interesting. Would TM stand for Tigermade?

Or he might be buying it so he can have a club sponsor.

Has anyone heard of this term called 'loan'? . Don't think you have to be worth ALL of it if you have brand name collateral. TW name would be worth a significant amount of the collateral.

Wow can you imagine,  in a few years we could all be hitting our 18 degree pitching wedges 500 yards.  Good old tiger made the clubs you can trust. 

Probably looking for another revenue stream in case his pro golf career doesn't pan out. ;-)

Taylormade? I don't think so. The company albeit on the decline and can certainly be picked up for a "bargain" (if it's able to be resurrected...) still has $xxx millions in revenue each year. I don't believe even Tiger has the funds for a venture like this.

How much is something like that worth?  I though Tiger was worth over a billion?

I had no idea Tiger was worth what he is. If I can believe google, he's around ~700 million net worth. I think you can flirt with buying many companies with that. However, net worth isn't the same as cash. So I really have no idea.

If TW bought TM, I would guess that sales would increase. That's just a guess though.

celebritynetworth.com has him at ~$720m - http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-golfers/tiger-woods-net-worth/

even with that, he wouldn't spend his own money outright if he's a smart investor. He'd likely put together an acquisition group, and they would finance all or a portion of the purchase.

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
