Tiger Woods had nothing but good things to say about his mom, who was supportive of his career.
Kultida was recently seen with her grandkids and Tiger at his ceremony into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2022.
Tiger Woods previously said his mother was 'tough.'
Tiger previously praised his mother during a 2017 interview with USA Today.
“My dad was always the person who would plant seeds and give me encouragement but also would say things that would fester inside me that wouldn’t come to fruition for a while,” Tiger said. “He was very worldly and deep in his thinking. My mom was the enforcer. My dad may have been in the Special Forces, but I was never afraid of him. My mom’s still here and I’m still deathly afraid of her. She’s a very tough, tough old lady, very demanding. She was the hand, she was the one, I love her so much, but she was tough."
“There was zero negotiation," he declared.
