WATCH: Tiger Woods' tip for young golfers: 1,000 balls per day to prepare Back to video
The footage was part of a video shoot for Bridgestone Golf, manufacturer of Woods’ golf balls.
In the video, which was posted to social media, Woods surprised a group of college golfers at Cape Club of Palm City in Florida. Besides giving the student athletes the surprise of their young lives, the 15-time major champion is seen working with the golfers on their swings and offering lessons in his philosophy of competition.
“One of the things that I enforce all juniors, all kids, all pros, is that when I’m getting ready for tournaments, I make sure that each and every day I have 1,000 contacts with a club,” Woods said. “That doesn’t mean hitting a thousand balls on the range. That means possibly hitting a hundred balls on the range, 300 chips shots, 600 putts. OK? You break it up however you want to break it up to. That develops feel and sensation that never goes away.”
This week, Woods is teeing it up in competition at the Hero World Challenge for the first time since withdrawing from the Masters in April. The tournament begins Thursday.
