So, I was thinking about Tiger and all his troubles and about how he said he wants to break Jack’s major wins record and that has always been his focus. I believe he was personally confused as to which of Jack’s records he ought to be trying to beat.
Jack married his wife Barbara right out of college and they have been happily married for many, many years (couldn’t find out exactly how many). They have 5 grown kids together and I came across an interview with Jack where he is talking about two of his kids who just bought houses right next to each other (Barbara says they fought a lot as siblings growing up).
Jack said, “Amazing, isn't it? Two older brothers living next to each other. And all five of our children live within maybe 10 minutes of Barbara and me. I think that's pretty neat. That's more important to me than 20 trophies for winning majors. And if it weren't the way it is in our family, I'd trade all those trophies to make it that way.”
Can’t help but think how much better off Tiger would be if he would have seen this as the record to beat! Love y’all family!
