Tiger Woods is writing a book, which will recount his historic victory in the 1997 Masters, when he broke 20 records and became the first player of black heritage to win a major championship.
The as yet untitled book will be ‘co-written’ with Canadian golf writer Lorne Rubenstein and released in hardcover, as an e-book and in audio editions in March 2017, a month before the 20th anniversary of his first Masters title.
"The 1997 Masters was one of the most important tournaments in my life for many reasons," Woods said in a news release issued on Monday by Grand Central Publishing, which acquired the rights to the book.
"I think about the hug with my dad and all the events that went on that week. A lot of people know generally about that tournament, but this gives me a chance to tell in detail what happened on and off the golf course."
His first book came out in 2001 and was called "How I Play Golf," which was written with the editors of Golf Digest magazine.
