David Feherty Shared a Joke Tiger Woods Once Told Him, Praised His Actions at Charity Events

David Feherty sat down for an exclusive interview with GOLF’s Connell Barrett to discuss his life, his future at NBC, and apparently a side of Tiger Woods that the public doesn’t get to see. Feherty praised Woods for showing up to his charity events and acting like a normal guy.

"“For one thing, he shows up at my foundation’s events for wounded military. He comes on his own, no cameras, has lunch with the boys. If a kid’s got one arm, Tiger will hit balls with one arm. Or no legs, he’ll hit it off his knees. And he’s so darn funny, but we beat that out of him by following him from the minute he arrives [at a Tour event].”"

Woods has been through a lot in his career both on and off the course. He’s had extreme ups and extreme downs, and it appears he’s finally getting his life together off the course. Hopefully it will lead to some good things on the course because as much as everyone likes all the young guys who are dominating the scene now, the majority of golf fans would like to see Tiger Woods name at the top of a major championship leaderboard on a Sunday afternoon.

Feherty, like Kevin Na, also shared a joke Woods once told him.

"“I remember one time he says, ‘Hey Feherty,’ pulling the bill of his cap down so the cameras can’t read his lips. ‘What do you call a black guy flying an airplane?’ I say I don’t know. He says, ‘A pilot, you f–king racist.'”"
