Summary

We take a DEEP dive into the life and career of Tiger Woods this week. Co-author of the new, best-selling biography "Tiger Woods," Armen Keteyian, joins the show to discuss Tiger's life and career and the 3+ year research process to uncover it. Few people know more about Tiger than Armen, and we get his thoughts and reaction on the research process and on the past, the present, and future of Tiger (hint: Armen's as amazed as anybody about Tiger's latest comeback). Outside the interview, we discuss the latest Justin Thomas vs Barstool Sports saga and Tiger's performance at the Quicken Loans National!

0:00.0	Hey four play listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple podcast, Spotify or YouTube.
0:06.5	Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon music.
0:09.9	There is a lot to talk about and luckily we talked for a long time with a very special guest this week, Armin Catayon.
0:17.4	Armin Catayon is one of the co-authors of the book Tiger Woods,
0:21.7	which you may have guessed is a very in-depth biography on Tiger Woods himself. This is a must read. I was hesitant.
0:29.3	I was hesitant because you don't want to, you know, you think it might be gossipy. You don't want to tie yourself up.
0:35.1	You don't want to in any way take away from your image of Tiger Woods, your fandom, how much we love this guy.
0:42.8	However, the more I learned about Armin Catayon and Jeff Benedict who are the two co-authors of the book,
0:47.6	these guys are very, very highly respected journalists. They've been doing
0:53.6	very good work for a very long time and we get into a lot of that with Armin Catayon himself. We spoke for, I don't know, 45 minutes, something like that.
1:02.7	So anyone that's in the Tiger, this is an absolute must read book. I can't explain to you the number of people by the way that tweet at me like what's the name of the book.
1:11.1	Oh, I was just about to say that. I was about to say I saw on Twitter. Hey, Riggs, what's that book you guys always talk about and you wrote about Tiger Woods and you wrote the name as Tiger Woods.
1:20.3	It's called Tiger Woods. That's just what it's called.
1:22.6	That's just the name of the book and it is incredible book.
1:24.2	It is so, so good. I think it's like 430 pages with like a 50 page bibliography.
1:31.3	Yeah.
1:32.1	So it's that good. It's obviously very fitting right now. We get into so much detail with this guy.
1:38.4	You know, because we talked about how well it works out for them that Tiger is in the midst of just a shocking comeback right now.
1:46.6	We've lost a little bit of scope on that because he's been solid now for four or five months.
1:51.0	But think about a year ago. I mean, I was just reliving an article earlier this weekend about Tigers, the DUI and all of that, which was like just barely over a year ago.
2:03.2	And to think where he's at now where he's threatening in these different tournaments and he looks healthy as ever.
