Tiger Woods Mental Toughness

By Chuck Evans • June 10, 2008

Tiger Woods undoubtedly has the strongest mental toughness in golf.

This was instilled in him at an early age by his father Earl. Earl would stand behind him and drop clubs, cough, make noises just as Tiger was starting his downswing all to prepare him for distractions that would arise from playing tournament golf.

You can see it today in Tiger’s game. Who else can stop their swing in the start down like Tiger, give that offender that icy stare and then get up and hammer the golf ball!
