Tiger Woods spoke about how parenthood had given him a new perspective during an interview for Golf Digest’s “A Round with Tiger: Celebrity Lessons by Jada Pinkett Smith,” in July 2021. The golfer was asked about lessons he had learned since Sam Woods was born. “What has my daughter taught me? I don’t like boys,” Tiger joked (via People).
“[Having Sam] has taught me how to be more patient,” he later added. In fact, the former Masters Tournament champion believed he gained invaluable lessons from Sam. “I have this thing about … I feel like every dude should have a daughter.”
The following year, the relationship between Tiger and Sam took center stage, as she was asked to give a speech when he was being inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in March 2022. Sam delivered an emotional address to the audience as she spoke about her father’s frightening car accident that almost cost him one of his legs. “Now, not only are you being inducted in the Hall of Fame, but you’re standing here, on your own two feet,” she said. “Dad, I inducted you into the Dad Hall of Fame a long time ago.”
Understandably, his daughter’s speech struck a chord and Tiger’s eyes were filled with tears as he approached the podium. “I just lost a bet … that I wouldn’t cry. Thank you, Sam,” Tiger said through tears.
