In his prime, American Tiger Woods was considered to be one of the best golfers on the planet. While Woods had impeccable skills that helped him win tournaments, another important aspect that helped him win was fitness. As a matter of fact, he is credited with helping bring fitness to golf.
The 15-time major champion was part of a press conference on December 22nd, where he was asked about Bernhard Langer's game at the age of 67. While Woods praised Langer, he was asked to speak about how impressive Bernhard's fitness level was.
"Well, it's a commitment to a lifestyle. You look at what Gary has done over the years. He's still out here competing at 89 years old, and look what Bernie has done over the years. That consistency to healthy lifestyle, training, just that ability to focus, and commitment to fitness. I mean, most of the golf community, they are willing to embrace fitness. Gary and Bernie were at forefront of it, and look how much they are able to enjoy it on the back end," Tiger Woods said via ASAP Sports.
