A Round with Tiger: Celebrity Playing Lessons - Jada Pinkett Smith | Golf Digest - Спорт
Dang tiger being vulnerable on camera like that wow. Much respect. So much humility. He doesn't feel like an inspiration to others bc he feels like just a regular guy who's made a bunch of mistakes that just so happens to be the greatest golfer ever. This man is a good human
The moment where Jada is saying it's amazing how much he's overcome, etc.
While that may be entirely true, Tiger is a different beast, which is on the one hand why he's been able to overcome so much (and will in the future), and on the other hand why he could never look at it that way. The best athletes all have that mindset, which - again, is why they are the best, and why they can't relate to normal folks in that regard. I do think he is much more humble and appreciative through his trials and tribulations, but he's also just always focused on achieving goals, and doing each step toward achieving them well, rather than "hey I'm awesome".... it's kind of implied.
I wish I couldn't look at it so cynically, but it looks a but contrived to me. I've watched all three episodes and there's some good stuff there, but a lot of platitudes as well. I get the feeling with women he plays the humble, wounded puppy dog shtick. I really hope I'm wrong but I've heard when he plays with his buddies or other pros he's quite a foul-mouthed dude.
Thanks hats what makes this round with Jada so special. She was asking questions about Tiger and his life and golf and listening whereas Wade and Spade were more about themselves (not in a bad way, just different)
the TGR Foundation is big on the STEM program and i love that because I'm an Enginerd and gave talks with a coworker's friend's elementary class to help promote math and science. Tiger has given back since he's had the means and that speaks volumes of human failure in life we ALL experience.
@@bilinguru Maybe because the presence of men makes him want to be competitive. It’s a natural thing in men. Lifting with other men raises the testosterone of any healthy male. Look it up.
I'm 43 and this man is the reason I started playing golf. I'm sure alot of other people my age can say the same. The greatest player to ever swing a club, in my opinion. The attention and the number of people he brought to the game is unmatched. I absolutely LOVE this guy!
i'm 39, and unfortunately I wasn't into to golf when he was dominating...I really wish I was. People were glued to their televisions. I got some of it in 2019 since I'm now absolutely addicted to the game.
at age 13 I was lucky enough to be on the driving range next to Phil due to connections my father had. And since Phil is a lefty, I was able to face him and mimic his swing. I started playing seriously after that. Still love Tiger, but Phil has this presence about him that is like a drug. It just makes you happy and thrilled to be alive. Will never forget it.
@T Free Oh here we go... There's ALWAYS a Debbie Downer on social media. Nevermind he is arguably the greatest of all time. Let's pick apart a man who gives millions of dollars to not only his own charity, but many others too. A great inspiration and role model for millions of people around the WORLD. Yeah, let's pick apart apart his shortcomings. He is human. He's not Jesus, just Tiger. Like you have no shortcomings huh? You probably watch pornhub on your phone in the bathroom, with the door locked while your wife is in the next room. If you even have a wife. Or apparently a life either except to leave negative comments on posts that have absolutely nothing to do with you.
@@TheAlphapuck5280 Well that is pretty awesome! Isn't the sound of a real players strike unmatched?
@@justinhall2711 You can get that too... its mostly the expensive clubs to be honest. I have some Taylormade M5 irons and I strike them pretty pure. Trust me the club is the biggest factor with that sound
Man Tiger was raw here. It's amazing to see how uncomfortable he still is about being put on a pedestal, even after so many years of being the best. What's more incredible is that he can be such a killer on the course and yet underneath that he's a humble, introspective human. Makes you realise that at the end of the day he's just a human with feelings and anxieties like the rest of us.
I don't think he's humble. He has to suppress all that confidence he has, keeps the fire burning. He could be a prick like a lot of golfers, but he subdues it intentionally. Hints of his arrogance spew, and then you see what happens with his history etc. Not saying he's not a great guy, I'm just saying he has a ton of emotions to suppress. He was brought up in an intense environment. His dad was intense. He too is intense.
They guy cheated on his wife like a thousand times.... including banging a prostitute in a church parking lot!
@Arcade Along with having kids. I also read once that when Arnie passed, Tiger decided to change his tune and be more like his idol. You'll notice Tiger is much friendlier with fans now and even other players, prime Tiger would never even acknowledge the rest of the field... these days not so much. I still think, deep down, he's an arrogant prick who puts on a show.
@@abdhashmi you say that because you can tell he is not content. Like he said he always feels like there is a fight. When realistically he could just accept he was one of the best golfers and still is but seems like if he accepts it the fire will go out. No fire might inspire people to do fight and try to do better but seems like he knows if he sets that in his head he would have never had won another tournament.
@@tableshaper4076 Sure ~ you came to watch the video to make this comment ~ let’s say cheating on the wife once or a thousand times is there lesser shame for doing less. I am just here to watch the video and admire the skill and I can separate the morals of the man.
I really like Tiger as a person. My husband and I ran into him a few times with his kids and gf around our town. He's always so kind and down-to-earth. Never rude or disrespectful. We don't approach him or any other famous person like star-struck fans either. We just casually walk by and we will speak, he and my husband will exchange fist bumps and we will keep it moving....the last couple times he must've remembered my husband bc he approached first and spoke which was cool. Over all really nice guy...seems humble. Im always rooting for him.
That’s a mint story 👍
I knew people who volunteered at the Canadian Open a long time ago where Tiger won. They tell me Tiger would fist bump or shook hands with the volunteers who approached him all week. When he wasn't focusing on his game, he was talking to the workers and volunteers when he could. Overall a nice guy and humble like you wrote.
Maybe we just don’t have buttholes the size of a quarter and have the ability to look past others flaws. Have been a Jack fan since I was a kid, and still think he is the greatest, but Tiger seems a lot more humble and thankful than his younger self. Qualities to be admired.
Met him a few times volunteering with the Fedex cup, my role was to drive the players to the back tees on Thursday/Friday, most of the players sat in the cart and said nothing, both times he started the conversation, made a joke, fist bumped and thanked me for volunteering. Phil was cool, and VJ as well.
@@agentmv I think that was the only Canadian Open he's ever played in too, I wish he would return one day. Always wanted to see him play in person. I was a volunteer there years ago and got paired up with Vijay Singh's group, was inside the ropes alongside him all day, super cool experience.
Nevermind the golf course, this man needs a friend
For someone so humble yet so accomplished, I wish him the best.
When you're that famous they are hard to find.
Where’s Jordan and Jeter when you need em
He needs JESUS!!!
✝️👍🏼
@@joehinojos3897 shut up
Will Smith watching this like 😰
Especially when she said I'd like Tiger to rub some of his magic onto me lol. I mean the dude slept with Perkins waitresses
You guys crazy boy
I couldn’t control myself she so hot 🔥
They have an open marriage, and Tiger is known to, out around the course a bit. She got her magic rubbed alright. 😂
😂
What Tiger did in 2019 was probably the greatest thing I've seen happen to the sport in my lifetime. I had overwhelming tears of joy when he won the Masters, and like Jada, it inspired me to take the game seriously. I played A LOT when I was younger, but never really tried to get better and was always roughly a 10 to 15 handicap. I'm much better now and getting very close to scratch golf. My ultimate goal is to be able to play in a qualifier for the US Open.
I wish Tiger the best of luck in healing and making a comeback. I'll be rooting for you all the way man.
Great to see Tiger open up over the years and best wishes on his recovery!
Jada represents us casual fans well in this engagement.
entanglement*
They genuinely had so much fun and Tiger seemed so relaxed with Jada ⛳️
Tiger stops the golf cart to talk every time.. it shows he’s invested into the conversation at hand. Truly a legend and I hope he can win another masters one year
Hope Tiger's recovery is going well. Jada was right about everyone else being emotionally evolved in Tigers journey. I'm a 53 year old man and I was in tears when he won the Masters.
When Jada says “Tiger is back!” That just gets me right into the heart because Tiger was finally getting back into the game and then the car accident occurred……..😢🥺😭
@@Peter-ff1tp he was definitely speeding, but you're just making up the pills part. Pathetic.
Knowing what happened to Tiger the very next morning makes his words and humbleness so much more meaningful. I found myself choking back the tears. This is a man who was just trying to get back to a good place. I admit that I was initially thinking that he might have been drinking or doing something worse when I heard the news of his accident. After seeing this video series, I really doubt that it was anything more than an accident. This man is one of the most impactful sports figures in any of our lifetimes. Thank God he has the fighter mentality that he speaks of in this video and he was able to make yet another return. If it weren't for this man, so many of us would probably never have picked up a club. Thank you Tiger! All the best!!!
Great watching Tiger. I hope he can come back again.
Watching Tiger feel so comfortable with Jade, and be able to be vulnerable and enjoy their time together. Jade has that love and respect that allows people to be themselves. This was my favorite thus far.
Haha yup, she definitely brings out the worst in everybody!
Yeah this comment didn’t age well, unfortunately.
I really hope to see him back on the golf course
I loved seeing this. She told tiger what all of us are thinking, he is an inspiration. Hope he recovers soon 🐐
Loved this. Thank you Golf Digest for filming and posting this. Jada has a great swing. All the best to Tiger’s recovery.
I've never thought I could relate to someone as great as Tiger. The fight has always been there for a lot of us. When I here him say all he knows is the fight, I here that he's just exhausted and that life is not easy. But it also shows his strength.
Sadly, the next day after this shoot, Tiger began a new fight. All I can say to Tiger is that I wish you the best in your recovery and your fight.
As for those of you who know the fight, I wish you strength to keep pushing through.
"I am never out of the fight!!" - I can just imagine Tiger watching Morikawa winnng and thinking, "I can still do this!" Tiger does not have to be the longest. If he can keep it in play and then hit those irons, he will always be a threat. Speedy recovery, Tiger!!!
Never say never. He has always proved us wrong
@@blakemortellaro Who was the guy that had the bad leg and got to ride in a cart because of it? I forget his name? Anyhow, I think Tiger will play again, maybe even win.
@@Pulse2AM didn't John Daily ride in a cart simply because he was overweight
@@iDoit4LoLz champions tour, different rules
@@ajkirkcaldie exactly
Best tiger video I’ve seen. She really got him to open up
Its cuz theyre both black
@@jacksontrollinger876 really dude does everything have to be about race.
@@randyjones3180 he's spittin facts randy
Please
Please. Both actors on the world stage.
I was very fortunate to be his interpreter for a day about 5 years ago. Unlike a lot of pros and celebrities who I worked with, he does not bring tension to the group and has a great sense of humor. He gravitates but never dictates. I know no one is perfect, but he brought a lot of joy and inspiration to the world, and I just wish we can see him play again someday.
This is just amazing. So lovely. Thank you Tiger for allowing this to be shown. So nice to see more of you. It's endearing. Great to see Jada too!!
I’m 27 and just now getting into golf, never really cared for it but I always watch Tiger play, he definitely inspired me to start Play golf and take it serious. Met a lot of new people by playing golf now my friends, they definitely help my game but I just want to say, thank you tiger.
I like to see tiger expressing himself his emotions and how he feels is so reflecting to his game
Jada reassuring Tiger is so wholesome 🥰
This was by far the BEST "A Round with Tiger" I have watched to date. I love this man so much this literally almost brought me to tears seeing him open up like this and be so vulnerable. After watching that documentary about him on HBO, I have such a new found respect and admiration for this brother. THANK YOU SO MUCH Tiger for being such a flawed, authentic, REAL, humble, amazing, HUMAN BEING!! Because of all these traits, you continue to make every one of us want to be like you on so many levels of our own lives. Continued success and perseverance in everything that you do and I hope to see you hold up number #19 before my time on this earth has expired!!! ❤️👊🏾🙏🏾
What a series this would have been!
Yeah they could of did episode two together in earl woods winnebago
@@Asiqowoodbbxirbd 🤣🤣🤣
Will: where you going, baby?
Jada: I'm going to play golf with Tiger.
Will: YOU WHAT!?
Big miss.
Jada: Yeah, he likes to barbeque and free dive. So exciting.
Will: Oh, wha . . .what's barbeque and free diving have to do with golf?
They look good together She's a cheater too🙄
If Jada was a man she'd be feathered and tarred by now...
0 integrity!!!!!!
Don't care about your comments. I don't read them anyway🙃
Don't worry, it's just an "entanglement"
Miss watching Tiger , it's like one of those you didn't know what you had till its gone moments . Tiger get better and heal up you've got so many fans waiting on you to make the swing again ~
Humbleness is so real! Love this video! Tiger is the reason I started playing golf.
This man inspired so many. Is that his greatest legacy. He transcended in so many ways.... whilst be so human and flawed. People argue the greatest... But I think his impact on golf was the greatest. Name a golfer. Really only one name world-wide
Such a shame this series has effectively been cut short. Get well soon 🐐
Thanks for posting this, a really good one. Wishing & Praying for the best full recovery for you Tiger and looking forward to seeing you tee it up again on the PGA. You said it's about the fight, you are still in the fight Tiger with much more to give. It's time to dig...you got this Bro. Get Well we all miss you👍🙏❤️
This was absolutely amazing to watch. Smiled the whole time.
Amazing
She really does have potential… You can tell there’s a natural talent going on there
Utter nonsense.
Yes, for sure. She's a natural.
Such a humble and modest dude! I hope he makes a great comeback!!
Really enjoyed seeing this. A real eye opener. I've always loved the man for his game, now I'm seeing the man behind the game. Thank you for bringing us this.
Really Loved the emotional Connection they had.

@@usmandeveloper2138 😂
Loving the sister and brother dynamic. And 9.50 to 11.00 hit me in the feels.
Can't wait for Tiger to come back. Praying for the goat.
Pray for Tiger also!
Jack's the goat
Wow. Can't express how much this view of Tiger Jada was able to get. To hear someone let him know how special he is to so many, and to get him to pause and reflect. Wonderfully produced.
Hearing Tiger Woods, who is arguably the greatest of all time, say that he wasn't good enough......just wow! He doesn't recognize all that he's done and his journey and comeback.....and doesn't realize what his story means to so many people and how much of an inspiration he is. Just wow! This piece was very well done. To be honest, when I saw it was with Jada, I didn't care to watch it and only started it because of Tiger, but Jada made me put my foot in my mouth because she did a wonderful job talking and listening to Tiger, and now I don't know if this "episode" could be topped. Very well done Jada and Golf Digest.
I felt the same way about seeing Jada’s name and wanting to skip it but I’m glad i watched. He really opened up to her.
Man. This man is hurting inside.. you could see it when Jada was talking about his journey..
It’s called acting. I think they’ll both be ok.
Needs an entanglment
Yes. I think he is suicidal
@@t.shamoan1646 thinking entaglement 2.0
I don't agree at all.
Jada with the notepad! Hope her game is coming along. Get well Tiger.
I never thought someone like tiger would be that humble. It’s amazing I like him a lot more now
Love this series! Shows Tiger in an incredibley REAL and Vulnerable state. He would make an amazing mentor and coach. he could have his own Tiger Army!
I can't imagine how crushed she was the next day when she heard about his accident 🤦♂️
The next day?
Maybe the talk of him being a role model and an inspiration sent him into a state
@@swgz600 Disgusting role model for cheaters🤮
@@hggtg lol. Get off your high horse 😂
@@Skodak96 yeah, if anything it would have taught people not to cheat him losing hundreds of millions. Idk though
amazing and so humble about being so gd
This is awesome! I noticed Tiger had the both of them adjust their right foot to point out just a little bit more. Also the tip he gave Jada about getting more distance by adjusting her left hand. Get well soon Tiger!!!
Tiger's tenacity will lead him back to the tour!! Get well soon!
He won’t win again, but that lifetime exemption will give him plenty of chances. The Master’s win was the equivalent of Jack in 86, one more trip to Victory Lane! Too many injuries have added up. I’m pulling for him, and it is Tiger Woods, but it may be over!
@@linkbelt111 i want to say youre right but it is tiger woods we are talking about after all
Wishing you the best, Tiger. Certainly hope to see you on the course again one day. Be safe.
14:39 that's just *_ridiculous_* skill! "I'd probably aim up to the top of this ridge..." Goes ahead and plays a speculative putt - to within six inches. Unbelievable.
Tiger journey has been such an inspiration! I can remember his mighty fall which all of us thought was the worse let down! But now we see such a better athlete, person and bigger inspiration for all of us in life and Golf! It would an amazing thing beyond all he’s already done to see him come back and break the major record! Now that would cement him as the greatest athlete of all time in any sport, although most of us already knows he is!!😊😊
If you didn’t show any other episode of this series because of Tiger’s accident, this is the one that had to be shown. Women are amazing creatures. Jada have Tiger a space to be vulnerable and express emotions. Ironically, she may have helped him as much if not more than he helped her. LOVED IT!!
I love this. Even if Tiger never plays professionally again, I hope he makes a great career out of teaching golf.
Yeah I thi k he will be a golf coach and the kids will be lucky to be taught by tiger that’s why his son is so good bc the greatest of all time teaches him since a young age
This was the best one of the series. Jada is such a sweetheart and brought out tigers emotions. Really cool to see.
Yes. My feelings exactly. At the end I just wanted to give them both a big hug and a fist bump. Jada was absolutely adorable as she pretty much is for her whole life. (Don't believe me? Check out 'A Low Down Dirty Shame' and try not to hug her itty bitty self through the screen). I'm so happy she got her birdie. Well deserved.
I also loved seeing Tiger this way. He is a star without comparison and he has built himself into this epic, legendary, clutch-machine, golf God through hard yards and great balance in his physical, mental and spiritual sides. But we barely get to see his teacher mode, his human mode, his buddy mode etc. In fact he strides the pantheon so well it defeats our imagination, that he could be human.
Rock star Tiger is a rock star teacher. Who would have guessed? Well I guess that became apparent when Charlie went all gangsta Tiger cub on the course.
Wishing Tiger and Jada much love and respect.
She’s not. She’s an evil woman. Don’t take my word for it. She embarrasses and emasculates Will. To quote the late great Elvis Presley, King of Rock N Roll, She’s the Devil in Disguise.
That’s what a grifter does.
What is a grifter? I feel a bit different about her now.
Love this series "A Round with Tiger." Would love to watch more than the 3 that have been done.
Jada has a really nice swing. I'm impressed.
She a swinger
Tiger needs a friend to talk to ... as many have said, he's so humble for being who he is. That's what made / makes him great. Get well soon TW.
GI Jane 2 can’t wait to see it.
The total irony of their conversation is mind blowing. It's truly like listening to a glimpse of the future. This was the best one.
I've never been a fan of much of what Jada's been involved in but somehow she managed to tap into a side of Tiger we've never seen. Incredible video
She was so giggly it annoyed me but watching tiger open up I was like thanks jada..
Great to see these two interact. Seemed really genuine and real. Loved it
Jada on watching the 19' masters. "I just get so emotional thinking about it all, knowing Tiger is back" me too Jada, meee too.
Really enjoyed this one, never really seen Tiger be so open in conversation before, much respect
Thank you Jada and Tiger for showing your human side, via the golf course. Honored to experience your day, 100% inspiring this is a great moment in time. I wish the sound was alittle better I don't want to miss one word!
Jada got some of her Red Table Talk in this session. I could have listened to them for hours. She has a knack of pulling realness and authenticy out people she interviews. A part of Tiger we hadn't seen. Maybe he'll come to the Red Table Talk.
she is the living Miss Purtie.
I hope he will and they better do an hour not 30 mins heheheh
That’s how a manipulative sociopath works. The woman is the worst.
Almost seemed like he spoke with her as if she was an older sister.
Wow, I'm sure glad he lived. It would have sucked to have seen this after he'd died.
This is so great! we have the opportunity to know better the goat in a real scenario!! I hope we can watch more about this show!!!
Dang just driving on the green like that. Tiger don't give 2 shits 😂😂
This made me cry. His human side is coming through here. Wow. Jada got him to open up.
I think we will get more of his emotional side if Jada takes him to the red table. I love this guy.
Watching this is so bittersweet, I really miss Tiger in the game, I hope he can come back successfully. 🐐
This was awesome to watch. Incredible insight on how Tiger think of himself and his unearthly talent. Keep fighting Tiger.
Thanks for all the memories Tiger. Now get well soon and become the greatest dad for your kids. God bless
I love how she told that story of tiger making her take golf seriously and then hit a shank
Lol
Accurate to 80 percent of golfers lol
😅
Charles Barkley has said he is the humblest celebrity he’s ever known
"Guaraaaaaaanteed!"
Also said he was the cheapest worse tipper he’s ever known
And also the cheapest
@@jasolnf0079 Noticed not much of an acknowledgement for the chefs.
Initially I was quite insulted. Then I sat back and gave the statement serious consideration, realizing, '...that's right, I've never met Chuck.'
I do like how Jada really got him to reflect. I enjoyed these discussions more than the golf which was not what I expected. I think back to how many times Tiger has been presented one way or another by the media. Its a shame we dont get to know how heroes more personally This was a great set to see. thanks Tiger and thanks Jada..
This is the best episode. Amazing. I hope we get to see more after Tiger is back at it, because this series is awesome.
Brother and I would play golf in the morning on the Sunday when Tiger was playing in a Major. Been following since his junior golf days and his amazing win at Pumpkin Ridge in Portland. I miss you Pat.
I love this thank you Jada and Tiger I really learned so much ❤
I have watched this three times now
the different sides and Daps we get to see in tiger….WOW what a phenomenal pairing and thank you so much for sharing it with us
Awesome video! Great playing Jada and get back soon Tiger. All of Canada misses you.
They got entangled
I wish I could just give Tiger a hug man
I absolutely enjoyed this episode. Jada is great at asking questions and Tiger was so natural and unshielded with her. It was very sweet to see. -and nice to see him kind of being very open. Tiger we love you. You got this, bro. We'll see you back at it again. :-D
This is absolutely wonderful!
I watch that final round broadcast of his Masters win at least once a month.
lol
I’m confident after seeing that, will was chasing him that morning.
Thanks for your time and insight Jada and Tiger!
Just seeing his joy when she nails a shot is amazing - humbling
Jada wearing 2 gloves pissed Tiger off the second he walked up😂
Jada describing Tigers masters win and how historic it was and Tiger just causally saying “yea” because his entire life is legendary
This is a great way to see Tiger, most champions in life genuinely care for others
Best Tiger video I seen being golf related but being him self and being open . Awesome video, always fighting is all he knows, powerful indeed.
He needs to do something in the future helping people with the game, he loves doing it. He lights up when he sees her hit good shots.. He still loves the game so much.
This was really cool. Best wishes to Tiger on his recovery.
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS VIDEO SINCE
What beautiful people, an emotional connection with the film for sure. More people should thank tiger and maybe he might start to love himself just a little more👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼
