  • Family Matters
    Jeff Benedict’s and Armen Keteyian’s number 1 New York Times bestseller is based on years of reporting and interviews with more than 250 people. The following extract from the biography introduces Tiger Woods’ parents Kultida and Earl and his grandfather Miles. Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian Family Matters On September 14, 1981, five-year-old Tiger Woods entered a kinder-garten classroom at Cerritos Elementary School that had been carefully decorated to help put children at ease. It was the first day of school. Pictures of animals and nature were tacked to a couple of bulletin boards. Hand-colored drawings – one of fluffy white clouds against a blue sky, and another of a bright yellow sun with 5 beams radiating from it – were taped to a side wall. Numbers and the letters of the alphabet ran along the top of the chalkboard. But none of it diminished the fact that Tiger felt different from all the other kids. Vastly different. Instead of toys, his prized possession was a custom-made set of golf clubs. Besides his parents, his closest friend was his golf instructor, a thirty-two-year-old man with a mustache named Rudy. Tiger had already appeared on national television a couple of times, 10 performed in front of millions of people, and rubbed shoulders with Bob Hope1, Jimmy Stewart2, and Fran Tarkenton3. His golf swing was so smooth that Tiger looked like a pro in a miniature body. He had even signed autographs, printing “TIGER” in block letters to compensate for the fact that he had yet to learn cursive.

  • Earl Woods Scholarship
    Earl Woods Scholarship 2015 ‐ 2016 Application EARL WOODS Chairman in Memoriam, Tiger Woods Foundation Earl Woods was the last of six children born March 5, 1932 to Maude and Miles Woods in Manhattan, Kansas. He attended Kansas State University, where he was a catcher on the university’s baseball team and was the first African-American in the Big Seven (now Big Twelve) Conference. Rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army, Woods served two tours of duty in Vietnam, where he met and befriended the original "Tiger," South Vietnamese soldier and friend Nguyen Phong, for whom his son is named. After his Army service, Woods was the materials manager of the Delta Rocket Program at McDonnell Douglas, until his retirement in 1988. Although Woods did not play golf until he was 42 years old, he excelled at the sport and achieved a one handicap. His love for golf inspired his son, Tiger, who began imitating his father’s swing before reaching his first birthday. Woods would continue to nurture Tiger’s love for golf, serving as his coach & mentor throughout the golfer’s amateur & professional career. In 1996, Earl and Tiger Woods established the Tiger Woods Foundation (TWF), a non-profit organization dedicated to the education and empowerment of America’s youth. TWF began its outreach through national grants and scholarships, junior golf clinics and public speaking engagements. Since its inception, TWF has grown to reach millions of young people through educational and character development programs. Woods was also a best-selling author of three books: “Training a Tiger: A Father’s Guide to Raising a Winner in the Game of Golf and Life,” published in 1997; “Playing Through: Straight Talk on Hard Work, Big Dreams and Adventures with Tiger,” published in 1998; and “Start Something: You Can Make A Difference,” published in 2000.

  • From a Young Age, Tiger Woods Showed That He Had the Potential to Become a Great Golfer
    Tiger Woods is quite a famous personality. He is widely known for his amazing achievements in golf. From the early moments of his professional success, his life, both professional and private has come under scrutiny. As a result of this, he became infamous for his marital infidelity. After his personal scandals were publicized, Woods took a break from golf. Now that he is back on tour, the question on everyone’s mind is, “Will he be different?” And is he capable of a successful comeback? In order to answer these questions, it is important to picture how much talent and hard work Woods had to have had in order to burst into the top of the sporting world. Afterward, we will understand what caused him to face his troubles. From a young age, Tiger Woods showed that he had the potential to become a great golfer. Woods was born in 1975. He was destined to do one thing: play golf. He was exposed to golf right from his early life. His training began more or less from day one. His parents ensured that nothing would stand in the way of his success. He was able to swing a golf club gracefully at two. This he learned just from simply observing his father, Earl Woods. Surely, his father contributed greatly to his future success. He basically trained him and sparked interest on him for golf before he could even understand it. Neuroscientists have shown that repeated exposure to live demonstrations can have a big impact on the development of a child.

  • The Pennsylvania State University Schreyer Honors College
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM “OFF-THE-FIELD”: THE ETHICS OF MEDIA COVERAGE OF ATHLETES’ PRIVATE LIVES RYAN WORTHY FALL 2016 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Journalism with honors in Journalism Reviewed and approved* by the following: Russell Frank Professor of Journalism Thesis Supervisor and Honors Adviser Curt Chandler Senior Lecturer, Journalism Faculty Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Like celebrities and politicians, athletes have undergone a spectacular transformation as public figures. Through the media’s coverage, athletes have evolved from working class heroes to marketable celebrities. Along the way, though, coverage went from admiring an athlete’s athletic performance to investigating an athlete’s private information. Ultimately, the increasing demands to report newsworthy stories caused an erosion of athletes’ personal privacy. This paper aims to show how the media’s coverage of athletes’ private lives has eroded their current expectation of privacy and examine views about what information about athletes’ private lives should and should not be reported. It also explores how technological advancements and cultural attitudes greatly influenced the coverage of athletes and their privacy. Through the analysis of the media’s 2009-2010 coverage of Tiger Woods’s extramarital affairs and a survey of several different media members, this paper will recommend a journalistic standard
