What Tiger can learn from an Indian Tiger
'Any inspiration derived from Atwal is due not to success alone, but struggle. Here’s a self-taught player, a weekend duffer who started late. He could’ve given up, but didn’t. Wouldn’t.
Unlike Woods, who was 2 years old and barely taller than his driver when he teed one up on the “Mike Douglas Show,” Atwal didn’t begin playing until age 14. Weekends only, when his father wasn’t working in coal mines. The sweat ethic rubbed off on the son who, even without dad, became a regular at the course. Every day. Alone.
Getting Better.'
