An old video of legendary Tiger Woods was recently found circulating online wherein the 15-time major champion was merely five years old. In the video he is seen saying that he wanted 1 iron and 2 iron golf clubs from Santa Claus as his Christmas Gift. Later in the same video, he swung a golf club to hit a ball on the golf course.
NUCLR GOLF, shared the video on their X (formerly Twitter) handle. Someone asked Tiger Woods what he wanted Santa Claus to bring him that Christmas. The young Woods initially said he did not know what he wanted. When asked again if he wanted golf clubs or balls as a present, he replied that he wanted golf clubs.
