You were working with him at his peak when he was winning nine and 10 tournaments a season. Did you see any fatigue from fans when it came to his dominance? Did people tire of Tiger?
SW: I never did see that, to be honest with you. That’s a very valid question and one that I’ve never been asked. As far as the fans go, I think they just had an unbelievable respect at this guy’s ability. Golf is a very, very difficult game, as everybody understands. I think the fans knew that they were seeing something special, and they were probably never going to see anyone like him again.

Rules are rules, but still it took some pretty big balls to tell Tiger he was on the clock when he was closing in on one of the biggest titles in golf. But if you were going to tell him, Woods wasn’t even your main concern.

“I’ll fix it,” Steve Williams said, and Tiger walked off, knowing that was the truth.

“Fuck, John!” Williams reportedly said to Paramor, a man generally considered one of the fairest in the business and just doing his job, “This is a fuckin’ joke! There are cameras going everywhere. It’s a fuckin’ disgrace. Don’t put my man on the fuckin’ clock!”

They caught up anyway, because rules are rules, but what did Woods know about it? Only that Stevie had it. Woods won the tournament by two shots.

For anyone who knows anything about Steve Williams, it’s not a surprising story. He has done things i
