About this listen

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 championship. Roaring Back traces his road to Augusta and the improbable, phenomenal comeback of one of the greatest golfers in history.

New York Times best-selling 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.

As this enthralling audiobook reveals, Tiger never doubted the perseverance of the winner in the mirror.

Disappointed with the other reviews I thought I would give it a go anyway and was surprised how much I enjoyed it, so much so I will be listening again.
Some new revelations as well, for me anyway.

Definitely worth a listen.

Overpriced and incredibly poor. The narrator has possibly the worst voice I’ve heard delivering an audiobook. Couple that with very little substance, the book is supposed to be about Tiger Woods but there are constant sidetrack fillers that have no connection to him at all .

Very poor

Poor book. Basically an aggregator of others work. The author admits he struggled to get more than 10 minutes access in the years he covered him, and that chip on the shoulder shows in the writing. No genuine insight and very much a story retold with a lot left out. You can skip this one.

Skip this one- not worth listening to
