Our Miami-based sports correspondent Simon Evans interviewed him this week and went beyond the usual questions about tournaments and courses and clubs to find out more about him. Here’s his story and a short video from the interview.

The difference between Tiger and all the other average golfers is that no matter how good or bad he plays he wants to get better.
