Sick To His Stomach, Yet Champion
Probably the greatest example of Tiger’s drive would be his fourth PGA Tour event win in 2003. Not only did he wipe out his competition, but he was also sick to his stomach while doing so. According to Bill Hay, an employee of the club, he took breaks between holes to throw up.
No matter his difficulties, Tiger won the event. Thankfully, he only had simple food poisoning that day, which he quickly overcame. Woods ended that year being selected as Player of the Year by the PGA Tour, PGA of America, and the Golf Writers Association of America.
