Tiger Woods‘s name is known in the golf world for 82 PGA Tour wins and 15 major titles and is easily considered the GOAT in the community. However, the wonders of this 48-year-old golfer aren’t only limited to his achievement on the greens, but off the greens as well.
While Woods was just nine years old he made a simple seven-word promise to his father Earl saying “I’m going to be professionally excellent,” as revealed on his website. One might think that he has already done it considering his achievements on the Tour but that’s not what Tiger Woods meant. The golfer is currently the founder of the TGR Foundation, which he and his late father, Earl Woods, established in 1996.
They envisioned the foundation as a way to support the health, education, and welfare of children across America. Guess what? He has done it. Recently Woods shared on Instagram, “I’m proud of the work my @tgrfound is doing to help kids chase after their dreams through our TGR Learning Labs and national education programs. Thank you to everyone who supports our work and makes the impact possible,” fulfilling the promise he made to his father.
