His goal was to get Tiger to be able to focus through any circumstance and be able to get himself out of difficult situations on the course. I am certain this translated well in the classroom and in his personal life, too.

Ok, so basically I need to be more of an drill sargent SOB. Humm, yeah I can do that...
