Tiger Woods is undoubtedly a legend in golf. Over his long, illustrious career, he has amassed millions of fans, including professional golfers. Scottish golfer Robert MacIntyre is one of them.
He met Woods for the first time at the 2022 Masters. However, his first interaction with the legend left him feeling a little embarrassed. He narrated the incident to Martin Dempster of The Scotsman ahead of the 2024 Hero World Challenge hosted by Woods (via Golf Digest).
"That day at Augusta, I hit it in the trees at the 11th and said to Mike (Thomson), who was my caddie at the time, 'I am going to take a couple of swipes at this’ and he said 'you can’t as you can’t move that ball,'. I said to him 'Tiger is on the tee behind me, I can’t go back to it (laughing)'. But I went back and, yes, it was uncomfortable!"
