I thought this film was alot better than I thought it was going to be. The film was really engaging and the story of this family and what it went through was rather inspiring. Keith David was excellent as Earl Woods and the woman who played his wife was also quite good. >
Anyway, two thumbs up from me.

This is a clear example of people with more money than sense, mistaking themselves as artists and trying to feed off the talent of others. A movie about Tiger Woods' life up until that point, all 23 years of it, is not that entertaining. As a viewer you are not treated to anything more than could be summed up in...oh, i don't know...a 30 second Nike commercial.
Particular bad points include the far from accurate portrayal of Colin Montgomerie with a broad Scottish accent. (just because he's Scottish)
The responsibility must fall to the director to do his research or to just forget about this project for at least another 20 years.

I don't know what other reviewers are talking about? This movie is good. It's on the level of a Lifetime-type movie of its day in time. Are people comparing this to a blockbuster type movie?... because it was not that bad.
At any rate, the acting was good and moved along pretty quickly. Everyone held their own, from the kid who played Tiger to him as a 21 year old.
Now, if Nextflix, Hulu, HBOMax or AppleTv (or something like that) made this movie, in this current and age-I'm sure it would be better and probably done in an episodic format up to current day Tiger.
Obviously, watch it yourself and judge for yourself. Definitely good watch for a lazy Sunday afternoon.

I had to laugh at "Markles" who said this was directed by Senor Spielbergo from THAT Simpson's episode, because he's SO right.
It was so bad that it kept me transfixed to the small screen in disbelief.
I marvelled as a clearly embarrassed Keith David had to spout lines describing golf as some sort of quasi-mystical Zen-like art. Tiger is portrayed as some sort of crusading Black-Asian Superman fighting against ignorance and intolerance for the rights of all people of colour to play this pointless game.
And then I felt sick when oh so poor nice middle-class boy Tiger was given 100 million dollars in sponsorship money !
I mean, 100 MILLION dollars for hitting a ball with a stick !!!!!! An indictment of today's society if ever there was one, when ONE man can amass so much for doing so little. 100 million for the person who discovers the cure for Cancer, for the starving African children, for the doctors, the surgeons, the firemen and police officers - yes. But NOT for a guy who hits a ball with a stick !
Senor Spielbergo, we salute you !

Wow!!!! this was the all time lowest film every made. A must see for those who are absolutely shocked with terrible cinema. My friend and I watched this one in amazement wondering where it came from. There was a funny line though........."How does my dictate" Tiger.......How did you let this get made?
