“Jack Nicklaus called the energy it takes to be a champion his juice. "You only have so much juice," he once said. "You try to save what you've got so you can use it when it means the most." Tiger had a tremendous amount, and no doubt he had an inner sense of how he was going to allocate it long-term. But the scandal forced him to use emergency reserves, and itâs natural to wonder whether he has enough left. â Hank Haney”

Read this if you are a golf fan, ignore it if you are not.”

“A fascinating book about a champion. Tiger'ÂÂs drive to win and mental toughness is incredible. His commitment to the process of improving is amazing; however, he is self centered and lonely. But, is this the price one pays for greatness? ”

Yes | No“This was an interesting book from Hank Haney about coaching Tiger Woods for six years. As a coach you come in contact with many different personalities; the challenge and fun is learning how best to coach these individuals. Sometimes the traits and characteristics that make people great competitors are a detriment to themselves as a person. ”

“You really need to be a big fan of the technical side of golf to fully enjoy this book. The book is filled with details of changes in Tiger's swing and notes from numerous different tournaments.

I picked this book up hoping to learn more about Tiger as a person, and to a degree it does bring that. Unfortunately, the side it shows is that he gave up SO much to be the greatest golfer alive. This book makes him appear closed off and almost juvenile at times. I genuinely hope this is merely the authors view and that Tiger is happier than he is portrayed here.”
“This is a inside look at what makes Tiger Woods tick. His coach Frank Haney struggles to make Tiger real. Haney feels that Tiger is a world class athlete but not a warm person. He pictures Tiger as removed, self centered and close to nobody. His criticism is mild compared to his positive input. Good book even if you are not a golfer.”
