the big miss excerpt - 'The Big Miss' Excerpt Offers Fresh Insight Into Tiger Woods, Hank Haney has painted a more human picture of Tiger Woods than most people would expect, in his new book, "The Big Miss."


An excerpt of the book has been released in the Golf Digest, and show Haney and co-author Jaime Diaz sharing revelations about the 14-time major winner, including his professional ambitions and personal desires.

Woods is said to take special care of his injured left knee in how he swings the golf club. Haney says, "To preserve his knee, Tiger wanted some flex in his left leg at impact."
 
However, using this adjusted stance leaves the top golfer susceptible to a pull-hook as his big miss.

Haney also mentions the pressure Woods applied to himself as he looked towards Jack Nicklaus. In his writing he states: "(Woods) never mentioned Nicklaus' record, but it started to weigh more heavily at every major. And Tiger's actions indicated he believed he had less time to do it than everyone thought."
 
The excerpt also reveals that at one point in his life Woods also was interested in becoming a Navy SEAL; perhaps motivated to follow in his father, Earl's footsteps.
