The seventh hole by 4 on the course also represents an important moment in Woods’ career. In 2008, he won the US Open championship over the seventh green. Woods defeated Rocco Mediaté by breaking equality on the seventh hole after the 18 -hole competition.
Kultida met Tiger’s father, Earl, when he was in the army in Thailand. Kultida and Earl moved to Brooklyn, New York, after making the knot. The couple then moved to Cypress, California, where Tiger was born. Earl Woods died in California in 2006.
According to ESPN, Tiger, whose real name is Eldrick, was appointed according to his mother and his father. The name Eldrick begins with an E in honor of Earl and ends with a K in honor of Kultida.
