The incredible true story of Tiger Woods’s dramatic comeback following his humbling and very public personal, physical, and professional setbacks. One publicly imploded marriage. Two car accidents. Eight surgeries. And now, a miracle of hard work and storied talent: five Masters wins. Once hailed as “the greatest closer in history” before he fell further than any beloved athlete in America’s memory, Tiger swung at the world’s wildest expectations and beat the skeptics with his April 2019 Masters championship. Roaring Back traces his road to Augusta and the improbable, phenomenal comeback of one of the greatest golfers in history. New York Times–bestselling author Curt Sampson details the highs and lows of Woods’s career in three gripping acts. From his startling loss at the 2009 PGA Championship, detrimental obsession with his swing, and that infamous night involving an ex-wife and a nine-iron…to adoring fans and lucrative sponsors turning their backs, exclusive interviews with past instructors and PGA tour peers, and an arrest complete with a toxicology report . . . finally to Tiger coming from behind for his fifth green jacket as the crowd rumbled in Georgia, and how his comeback rivals those of the most dramatic in his sport. Sampson also places Woods’s defeats and triumphs in the context of historic comebacks by other notable golfers like Ben Hogan, Skip Alexander, Aaron Silton, and Charlie Beljan, finding the forty-three-year-old alone on the green for his trajectory of victory against all odds. As this enthralling book reveals, Tiger never doubted the perseverance of the winner in the mirror. “Sampson admirably details all the highs and lows.” —Jim Nantz, CBS Sports

Many have asked the question: Why is Tiger Woods the way he is? This book will answer that question plus many more as the author gives you an insider's true and honest firsthand look into the private lives of Tiger Woods and his father, Earl. From the time he was ten years old, she saw how Tiger was falling victim to a controlling and obsessive father who pushed him to be the best, forced him to be perfect, and expected him to be a champion, transforming young Tiger from a shy and impressionable child into an arrogant and unapproachable competitor. Taking advantage of their close father and son bond, Earl was able to control every aspect of Tiger's life, capitalize on his amazing talent, and exploit his son's love for golf. Tiger's personal life became less important than his so-called "image"; an image that was created for him by his father, his agents and the media. Linda also reveals many never before told stories including how Tiger lived with family dysfunction, his dependency on his father, and the pressures, changes, and life lessons Tiger faced. She also watched how Tiger's sudden success affected the Woods' family, allowing themselves to be seduced and swayed by wealth and fame. The author's personal friendship with Tiger and Earl began in 1986 and, as Earl's best friend, included many years of playing golf with Tiger and Earl, being given golf lessons, travelling with Earl, flying on Tiger's jet and attending Earl's private funeral. There has never been a book this revealing about Earl and Tiger Woods' personal and private lives.
