The man never fails to surprise me.

Reuters 31/03/08 11:58pm
Tiger Woods has given a press conference to the major sports networks in the US saying he is to play the next three competitions left handed. Tiger is said to have been practicing "clute" for over a year now in his spare time and feels his game is ready to take another step forward.
During the media he is quoted as saying "I cannot take my game any further along this route and so I have decided to take on the game from a different angle". Joking, he quipped that if (phil) Mickelson can do it, so can he.
His next scheduled appearance will be at this weeks Shell Houston Open, followed by The Masters (although he said he will take both sets of clubs to this event) followed by the EDS Byron Nelson Championship in Texas.
His press conference also contained footage of practice ground work and a discussion with Butch Harmon who also had a promising career as a left hander before he changed to right handed.

if anybody can do it and do it well only tiger can !!!!
his very first golf shot as a 3 year old was left handed according to his late dad and he made a perfect swing , after a while watching his dad he realized his dad was right handed , so he picked up a right handed club and again made the perfect swing .

i think they should should capture him and open him up to see if he is a robot inside lol.

Date appreciated! Didn't Brian Close have a right handed handicap of 2 and left of 7?

It would also appear that the one logo on his cap is backwards. Me thinks Brendy is getting a little creative. I smell date related humour.

Wow...doesn't the top picture make you want to weep with frustration!!! I'm going to have a crack left-handed today (only today!) because as a natural left hander, I'm sure to be better.
I might also drive my car left handed for one day only and sign my cheques with the wrong hand.

Very good mate!!! boom, boom

seen an advert on utube where he comes out of the woods(no pun) and challenges the four balls for a nearest the pin on a par 3 for a car.
He picks up one of the left handers clubs turns it up and plays a shot right handed with the left handed club.

A nice exhibition shot.

No apology necessary Brendy, I thought it was quite good. Where did you get the images from, or did you edit them yourself?
Googled them mate then mirrored the images, quite an easy job but fairly realistic.
I think mirroring facing swings actually helps you understand how to liken your own swing to something, well, better. The few lessons I did have, years ago were with a left hander and I found it easier than watching a right hander. My handicap dropped from 12 to 6 in a couple of months mostly working on irons with only an hour or so spent on putting and driving.
