Tiger Wants To Know About Sandy's Hickory Round At Augusta
/Ok this Tiger charm offensive has reached epic proportions now that he is asking about hickory clubs! Is he running for office? He has my vote!
Martin Dempster talks to Sandy Lyle about Tuesday's Champions Dinner and Tiger's interest in the former champ playing Augusta National last Saturday with his Tad Moore hickories.
“Tiger said to me, ‘I hear you played on Saturday with hickory clubs’ and I said ‘how did you know?’ He asked me where I got them, I said it was from Tad Moore,” revealed the 1988 Masters champion. “He didn’t know that name, but he sounded quite interested. At the end of the evening he came over and said ‘what was that name again?’
“I played round here on Saturday with them. It was windy and I’d just driven up for five hours. I wasn’t quite on full swing. My challenge was to break 80, but I didn’t. It was off the back tees, mind you. I parred the first and the 18th.
