Tiger (miniseries)
Tiger is an American 2021 two-part sports-biographical documentary miniseries about professional golfer Tiger Woods. It aired in two episodes on HBO on January 10, 2021, and January 17, 2021. The documentary is based on the 2018 book Tiger Woods by Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian.
The documentary is based on the 2018 biography Tiger Woods and examines Woods' rise, fall, and return in the world of golf. Like the biography, the documentary explores Woods' relationship with his father, and that relationship's effect on the golfer's career. It features interviews with Woods' former caddie Steve Williams, Woods' former girlfriend, Nick Faldo, Bryant Gumbel, and Rachel Uchitel, who was involved in Woods’ infidelity scandal. Tiger notably relies on outside voices to tell Woods' story and does not include his perspective or commentary.
The filmmakers, Matthew Hamachek and Matthew Heineman, said that Woods declined to be interviewed for the film twice citing a contractual conflict. Woods' family does not appear in the series either.
The soundtrack includes English punk poet John Cooper Clarke's 1980 poem "Evidently Chickentown", which was also used for its ominous sound in an episode of The Sopranos in 2007.
Agent Mark Steinberg called the miniseries "another unauthorized and salacious outsider attempt to paint an incomplete portrait of one of the greatest athletes of all-time" after previously denouncing the biography it was based on.
Golfer Collin Morikawa stated that unless Woods "was going to be the one narrating it, I really have no interest" in watching the documentary and that "the best way you can get to know someone is by talking to them."
A source close to Woods said that he was "not thrilled" about the documentary's release and was concerned it would tarnish the image he was working to restore.
On Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds an approval rating of 73% based on 22 reviews, with an average rating of 6.83/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Tiger is undeniably well-made - unfortunately its surface level findings shed little new light on the enigmatic golfer." On Metacritic, the series has a weighted average score of 72 out of 100, based on 16 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".
