The fascinating thing for me about Tiger Woods: he's never satisfied. The hunger never goes away. It's this monk-like pursuit of the ultimate goal – perfection.

Introduction

From the time he was a toddler and barely big enough to hold a golf club, Tiger Woods had all the trappings of a winner.

Under the eye of his father, Earl, who always regarded his son as a prodigy, Tiger trained relentlessly and focused obsessively on becoming the best.

But there would be a dark side to this compulsive spirit of competition.
