No.4 - Tiger Woods always exceeds expectations
Every time the odds seem stacked against Tiger Woods, he pulls through. We just shake our heads that he’s done it again. We expect him to win a tournament by five strokes; he wins it by 15. We expect him to birdie an easy hole; he eagles it. In the 2008 U.S. Open, with knee surgery just around the corner, we didn’t expect him to endure four rounds and a playoff round to win -- but he did. At the 2006 British Open, just his third tournament after the death of his father Earl, Woods shot -18 to win when we may have thought the emotions would have gotten the better of him.
No.3 - Tiger Woods has mental toughness
Woods’ father, Earl, once said his son will be the toughest golfer to play against because no one will be able to beat him mentally. In the sport that’s perhaps the most mentally demanding, no one is better. Remember Woods battling through knee and leg pain to beat Rocco Mediate in extra holes during the 2008 U.S. Open? He could have withdrawn, but instead grimaced his way to his 14th Major victory. Back in 2003, Woods was so sick during the fourth round of the Bay Hill Invitational that he threw up several times during his play -- and still won the tournament by 11 strokes.
No.2 - Tiger Woods isn't flashy
In an era when many young athletes use hefty signing bonuses for rims, grills and diamonds, it’s refreshing to see someone who doesn’t flaunt his wealth. Tiger Woods is the richest pro athlete in the world today (late in 2009 he became sport's first billion-dollar man), but you’d never know it. Sure, we hear stories about his 155-foot yacht (aptly named Privacy) and his $65 million spot in the Hamptons, but we don’t hear about these from him. We appreciate that the man who could buy just about anything he’d like doesn’t rub our noses in his riches.
No.1 - Tiger Woods always comes up big
As men, we all fantasize about delivering big on the biggest stages -- in the boardroom, on the sports field and in the bedroom. Now that we know Tiger comes up big on at least two of those stages, it's even more impressive that on the golf course, he never seems to get beaten when it matters most. Sure, he has his share of defeats, but on Sunday, when he’s clad in red and chasing down an opponent, you know that opponent’s finished. Likewise, when Woods is leading the pack, no one’s going to catch him. Sports history is full of choke artists; Woods will never be a part of that group.

Plan your Golf Vacation for the best Golf Vacation you Will ever have
"What If You Could... Have the perfect group golf vacation, save money and have a sensational time setting it up?" Instead of buying "the package", design your own optimum, personalized vacation.
Remember last year?
You waited all year to get together with your friends for your annual golf vacation. It was supposed to be perfect, but you bought "the package" and your outing turned out to be simply adequate. You all had such high hopes, but you had to take what the package provided.
Sound familiar? Have you been on the receiving side of a less than perfect golf vacation? In all fairness, most golf packages are good. Some are great. But they truly are packages designed for the mass market with little flexibility and no individual flair.
A standard golf vacation package provides lodging and one round of golf per day, including a cart. The lodging usually means motel or hotel accommodations with two people per bedroom. In most cases, you can choose from several different courses, and select your advance tee times. They will even throw in a continental breakfast. The prices are fair, but varying from the standard package starts adding cost in a hurry.
Again, "the package" will yield a good to great vacation, but we need to discuss the perfect vacation. Envision this:
A beautiful vacation house with a separate bed or bedroom for each person.
Gourmet dining each evening.
As much or as little golf as you want, where you want and when you want.
Evening entertainment.
Maximum camaraderie.
