>> STEPHEN: WE'RE BACK WITH TIGER WOODS.
TIGER, YOU'RE ONE OF THE GREAT GOLFERS OF ALL TIME BUT ALSO A
GREAT POPULARIZER OF GOLF.
ANOTHER MAN WHO IS KNOWN FOR THAT IS, OF COURSE, ARNOLD
PALMER.
HERE'S A PHOTO OF YOU AND ARNOLD TOGETHER
( APPLAUSE ) ARNOLD PALMER JUST PASSED AWAY.
WAS HE AN IMPORTANT FIGURE FOR YOU?
DID YOU LEARN MUCH FROM HIM?
>> HE WAS ONE OF MY HEROS.
WE BECAME GREAT FRIENDS.
GOT A CHANCE TO WIN HIS GOLF TOURNAMENT A FEW TIMES.
AS I COME OFF THE GREEN, HAVE HIM GIVE ME A GREAT BEAR HUG IS
SOMETHING THAT WILL ALWAYS BE SPECIAL TO SEE THAT PHOTO ON THE
GREEN OF US CHITCHATTING.
WE WERE ALWAYS NEEDING EACH OTHER PRETTY HARD, WHICH IS A
LOT OF FUN.
>> Stephen: I UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU WERE AN AMATEUR, HE ACTUALLY
TOOK YOU TO LUNCH ONCE.
>> WHEN I WAS AT STANFORD HE INVITED ME TO COME TO THE
SILVERADO WHICH IS WHERE THE SAFEWAY WAS TO HAVE DINNER.
I GO AND I PICK HIS BRAIN A LITTLE AND I LEAVE.
MY COACH FINDS OUT, SAYS DID YOU PICK UP THE TAB IF IT'S ARNOLD
PALMER.
I'M A COLLEGE STUDENT.
IT'S ARNOLD PALMER.
SO HE SAYS, WELL, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS.
SO HE CALLS NC TWO As, THREE DEEM ME INELIGIBLE.
I HAD TO WRITE A CHECK TO ARNOLD PALMER FOR $25.
I WAS AT EL PASO FOR THE ALL AMERICAN.
HE HAD TO CASH THE CHECK, SEND IN A COPY AND I WAS ELIGIBLE TO
COMPETE IN THE ALL AMERICAN.
>> Stephen: WOW.
IT'S NOT THAT STRICT ANYMORE, RIGHT SNMPLEGHT IT CHANGED A
LITTLE BIT.
>> Stephen: 20th ANNIVERSARY OF THE TIGER WOODS FOUNDATION.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: HOW HAS IT GROWN SNOW.
>> THE EMPHASIS WAS TO GET MORE PARTICIPATION IN GOLF.
WE DID THAT WITH JUNIOR GOLF CLINICS AROUND THE COUNTRY.
WHEN 9/11 HAPPENED AND I DROVE HOME ON THE 13th FROM
ST. LOUIS, IF I DIED IF THAT TRAGIC DAY, WHAT WOULD THE
FOUNDATION LOOK LIKE?
WELL, WE WOULDN'T HAVE ANYTHING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY
BRICKS AND MORTARS, NOTHING TANGIBLE, IT WAS JUST A
TRAVELING CIRCUS OF JUNIOR GOLF CLINICS.
I WENT TO MY DAD AND SAID WE NEED TO CHANGE THIS.
HE SAID WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN MIND?
I SAID WE NEED TO CREATE SOMETHING TANGIBLE, SOMETHING
KIDS CAN CALL THEIR OWN.
A WEEK LATER, I SAID WHY DON'T WE COME UP WITH A LEARNING
CENTER.
I SAID OKAY.
I GAVE MY DAD THE DIRECTIVE.
HE COMES BACK TEN DAYS LATER AND SAYS WHY DON'T WE CREATE A
LEARNING CENTER WHERE I PLAYED HIGH SCHOOL GOLF AT AND WE
CREATE A LEARNING CENTER OF 50,000 SQUARE FEET, AND MY DAD
GOT A CHANCE TO ACTUALLY SEE IT, BE A PART OF IT AND FEEL IT
WHILE THERE WERE KIDS IN IT -- WELL, KIDS WITH RESPECT IN IT
AND THEN IN IT.
I WAS WHEELCHAIRING THEM AROUND.
HE PASSES ABOUT A YEAR LATER.
THEN I, ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO, I BRING MY SON CHARLIE TO IT.
SO TO HAVE THAT TYPE OF FAMILY ATMOSPHERE, TO HAVE MY DAD THERE
AND NOW MY SON THERE HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE.
>> Stephen: I KNOW THAT YOUR FATHER WAS AN ENORMOUS MENTOR
AND INFLUENCE FOR YOU AND, YOU KNOW, WHEN FATHERS PASS, WE LOSE
THEIR VOICE.
HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO RE-CREATE THAT VOICE INTERIMLY FOR
YOURSELF TO HAVE THAT GUIDANCE EVEN THOUGH HE'S GONE?
>> I DO.
HE SAYS GET OUT OF IT WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT.
IF YOU WORK HARD, YOU GET RESULTS.
IF YOU DON'T, YOU WON'T GET THEM, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU
DON'T DESERVE IT BECAUSE YOU DON'T EARN IT.
THAT'S WHY I PRACTICE SO HARD.
EACH AND EVERY DAY, I THINK ABOUT MY OLD MAN.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: WELL, YOU'VE HAD
THE GREAT PRIVILEGE OF GOLFING WITH QUITE A FEW PRESIDENTS.
CAN I DO RAPID FIRE HERE?
I'LL NAME PRESIDENTS YOU PLAYED WITH AND YOU GIVE ME YOUR
IMPRESSION AS A GOLFER.
GEORGE H.W. BUSH.
>> FAST.
>> Stephen: FAST?
FAST GOLFER?
GOOD GOLFER.
>> YES, WE PLAY IN ABOUT UNDER TWO HOURS.
>> Stephen: CLINTON?
LOTS OF CUTS.
>> Stephen: LOT OF CUTS AT THE BALL OR CUTTING CORNERS?
( LAUGHTER ) >> CUTS.
>> Stephen: CUTS.
ALL RIGHT.
I'LL GET YOU A LAWYER PRESENT BEFORE YOU ANSWER THAT AGAIN.
W.W. BUSH?
>> NO.
>> Stephen: OBAMA?
TRAIGHT.
>> Stephen: STRAIGHT?
VERY COMPETITIVE, RIGHT?
>> EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE, HITS IT STRAIGHT.
>> Stephen: HARD, LONG?
HARD, HIT IT CROOKED, NOT LONGISH.
>> Stephen: WHAT ABOUT TRUMP?
YOU SAID PRESIDENTS.
>> Stephen: THE TIGER WOODS FOUNDATION CELEBRATING ITS
20th ANNIVERSARY!
BACK, EVERYBODY WITH ELIJAH WOOD!
