Let’s just rein it in on the Tiger talk
By Alex Perry
We get it. Tiger Woods is back swinging his big stick and the golf world’s reacted with a collective nostalgia-induced gasp.
Hank Haney threw his observation into the ring (obviously) and the golf world held each other tight.
Well, let’s not get too excited. Alex Perry explains why in this week’s episode of The Slam.
Elsewhere, find out how you – yes, YOU! – could play golf with Phil Mickelson, and why Jordan Spieth has warmed our hearts this week.

About the Slam
Founded in 2017 in a tiny green room in Leeds, The Slam, presented by Alex Perry, is National Club Golfer’s irreverent look back on the biggest news of the week from the golfing world.
It has since received rave reviews from the critics:
“This guy is nowhere near as funny as he thinks he is” – Facebook
“I wish he would get his hair cut” – YouTube
“WTF” – Twitter
“I heard him say Tiger Woods. Did he criticise Tiger Woods?” – Tiger Woods fans
“You look very handsome and I’m ever so proud” – Alex’s mum
If you’d like more musings from Alex’s little world, you can follow him on Twitter. Or don’t, that’s up to you. Probably best you don’t.
