REVIEW: “Being Tiger Woods took its toll on Tiger.” That’s the blunt, but sad assessment of Steve Williams, a man well-qualified to comment on the highs and lows of the famed golfer’s life and career. The Kiwi spent more than a decade as Woods’ bag man, caddying while the prodigiously talented sportsman dominated the game he loved in a way no-one had ever done before. Williams was there when Woods completed the incredible Tiger Slam and when he overcome crippling leg and knee injuries to triumph at the 2008 US Open. “I heard a crack in his knee like he’d just been shot,” Williams recounts. “I said to him, ‘maybe this is the time to quit’. His reply? ‘Stevie, F… you, I’m winning this tournament’.
comments Tiger, HBO s new two-part documentary about Tiger Woods, attempts to explain the towering rise, epic downfall, and eventual comeback of one of the greatest athletes in the world. Based on the 2018 biography by Armen Keteyian and Jeff Benedict and with an eye toward separating the man from his carefully constructed public image, the documentary from directors Matthew Heineman and Matthew Hamachek uses never-before-seen footage and new interviews with one-time friends and acquaintances to paint a portrait of a man destined for greatness who became a cautionary tale about the pressure of expectations. Unfortunately, after a relatively strong start, the documentary ultimately unravels in time with its subject.
