Tiger Woods’ former coach, Hank Haney, recently released excerpts from his tell-all book to The New York Post. The Big Miss details the golfer’s controlling and seemingly unhealthy relationship with his estranged wife, Elin Nordegren. The Daily Mail reports on the story:
Publicly shamed golfer Tiger Woods banned his ex-wife from smiling on the golf course, according to his former swing coach Hank Haney.
In a revelatory book he reveals the pro sportsman’s controlling attitude towards Elin Nordegren. He claims Woods banned Nordegren from smiling on the golf course if he won, because he felt that he was ‘supposed to win’.
Excerpts from the book, entitled The Big Miss, have been published in the New York Post. In it Haney describes the relationship between Woods and his Swedish wife as being ‘calm, almost cool’.
Three months after the couple married, Nordegren apparently wanted to celebrate her husband’s victory at Torrey Pines.
