From Adare Manor to Ballybunion, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy have turned their Open Championship prep into the buddies' trip of a lifetime.

“Back in the day,” Rory can be heard telling Tiger in one video, seconds before piping a center-cut drive. The two men were at Ballybunion ( ranked 9th in GOLF’s Top 100 Courses in the UK and Ireland), reliving McIlroy’s glory days as an ascendant junior golfer in the Irish countryside. Tiger played in a cart, saving his legs for The Open, while McIlroy played (briefly) with Woods’ driver.

Tiger Woods' 2005 Open Championship winning clubs — A deep dive (Golf.com)

As Tiger Woods primes for the British Open at St. Andrews, we present a deep dive into the clubs he used to win his second Claret Jug in 2005.

The platinum was one of the few 4-piece balls on the market and it has since been confirmed that at the time Nike’s golf balls were being produced by Bridgestone. It seems normal now to think Nike made irons — and darn good ones at that, but in 2005 Nike was still very much a newcomer in the space. We have to remember Tiger was one of the last PGA Tour players to use a steel-shafted driver and making the switch took a lot of time. Considering the reference to the club in the following video, and how it outperformed his previous Titleist, it’s no wonder this was his gamer. Just goes to show you when you have a short game as good as Tiger’s you can afford to keep it simple. It’s 2022 and we are celebrating the 150th playing of The Open Championship. Wait, it gets better…

Sequoia and Tiger Global Take SoftBank to the Cleaners (The Washington Post)

It is a round-down of epic scale — unless you are SoftBank. Two years ago, the $100 billion Vision Fund manager slashed its WeWork valuation to $2.9 billion ...

Five years ago, SoftBank disrupted the venture capital world with the $100 billion Vision Fund. Now, its value proposition is under attack from all corners. A second major challenge in the VC world is how to retain talented fund managers, who can simply quit and set up their own businesses. In April, two of the three managing partners at the company’s Latin America Fund left to start their own venture business as well. Its Chinese affiliate is about to close $9 billion in fresh capital, the biggest pool of money ever raised by a single VC firm to bet on local tech startups. Tiger was a money magnet, raising almost $20 billion in the span of just one year for two new funds. While the absolute dollar amount involved with Klarna is much smaller, the blow to Son’s reputation is nonetheless as damaging.

Woods and caddie set 'target of winning 21 majors' (BBC News)

Tiger Woods' long-time caddie Steve Williams says his former boss was "obsessed with breaking Jack Nicklaus' record" of 18 major titles.

"Tiger was obsessed with breaking Jack's record," he said. It's great when the wind blows because it makes it a real challenge." His whole goal was to eclipse Jack's record, that's what he wanted to do and his desire and work ethic to try and achieve that goal was second to none." However, the pressure was never greater than when Woods was chasing the 'Tiger Slam' at the Masters in 2001. "Some guys are happy to be top five, top 10. And he said that's because I'm retiring too."
