Tiger Reveals His Mount Rusmore Of Golf

During a busy day of practice and press conferences at Le Golf National outside of Paris, it was a social media post that garnered a lot of attention both for its protagonist and his message.

In a day and age when everything must be ranked, Tiger Woods was asked a simple question that requires an endlessly complex answer by the United States Ryder Cup social media team, “Who would be on your all-time Mount Rushmore of golf?”
