Bangkok--14 Mar--Francom Asia
CNN’s Don Riddell goes to The Dubai Desert Classic in Dubai to interview the world’s number one, Tiger Woods for March’s edition of LIVING GOLF.
Ahead of the Dubai Desert Classic, CNN were given unfettered access for 30 minutes to interview Tiger Woods.
“My golfing career revolves around those four events so hopefully I can peak at those four times of the year and get everything organised.” Woods said
He’s peaked 10 times already, eight more will see him match Jack Nicklaus’s record haul. Does he think of that every time he prepares for a big one?
“No, it's something you have to put off because it takes a career. It's something that's not going to happen this year; it's not something that's going to happen next year. It took Jack 20 years, it's going to take a long time and I understand that. So far I've done a pretty good job and hopefully over the rest of my career I can continue.”
“I feel like my life is pretty special, but I don't look at myself that way. You know, it is what it is. I caused all of this by making some putts at the right time and by hitting some good shots.” Woods added.
It’s rare that in a brief encounter someone would reveal such polarity. On the course, he can be utterly ruthless, displaying a killer instinct that drives fear into his opponents, but there’s also a soft, emotional side.
