From his appearance on the "Mike Douglas Show" at age three (he
putted for Bob Hope and Jimmy Stewart) to his winning the U.S
Junior Amateur title at fifteen (he was the youngest champion ever)
to his recent victories in four Grand Slam events in a row (though
not in the same year), Tiger Woods has pursued with single-minded
determination his dream of becoming the greatest golfer in history.
But who is the real Tiger Woods? From his Nike commercials to his
conflicting statements on race, Tiger has stirred up plenty of
controversy off the golf course. And now in "Chasing Tiger"--an
up-to-date collection of profiles, commentary, and reporting on
Tiger's career by both U.S. and British writers from the late 1980s
to now -we chart the trajectory of "the chosen one" from young
prodigy to the most popular athlete in the world. With stellar
profiles by esteemed sports writers such as Gary Smith and Charles
Pierce, reportage by Pulitzer Prize-winning sportswriters Tom
Boswell and the late Jim Murray, and pithy commentary by Ellen
Goodman, Maureen Dowd, and Frank Deford, "Chasing Tiger" is a
multi-dimensional portrait of the making of a legend.
