Tiger Woods says he does not like Haney's book
Tiger Woods is not happy about Hank Haney's upcoming book titled “The Big Miss: My Years Coaching Tiger Woods”, which Haney is planning to launch soon.
Tiger believes that Haney does not have the right to write anything about their time together and publish the book just for the sake of money.
"I think it's unprofessional and very disappointing" and that the book "is about money," Tiger said while speaking to ESPN.
He further added, "There have been other one-sided books about me, and I think people understand that this book is about money. I'm not going to waste my time reading it".
The book is expected to be in the market before the Masters Tournament begins in April.
There is only one month left before the launch and Tiger has declared that he is no going to appreciate the book.
On the other hand, Haney has a different point of view. He said, "It seems pretty consistent to how he's reacted to things in the past. I feel like it is a fair and honest book. I know he said it is 'unprofessional'".
Haney went on, "I don't know how you can make a comment like that without reading the book. I think I had an opportunity to write an unprofessional book, but I don't think I did. I feel like I wrote a fair and honest book".
He also said that truth is truth. No one can deny true stories of Tiger Woods and whatever he did in the past.
He is a famous personality in golf and everyone knows him. Haney added that the book only includes some features, which the public may find interesting to read.
There is nothing fake and all the content Haney wrote was true according to him. The launch of the book is being planned also because the flood of interest the people have shown.
It is expected that people will want to purchase the book because of Tiger Woods.
Haney said that he is often asked about Tiger's life and his career, so he decided to speak his mind in a book. There should be no hesitation if one wants to talk about the celebrity.
Haney is confident that he has mentioned the life of Tiger in his book and that he will not be retreating or taking his words back because he does not think the book has something that will cause trouble.
On the other hand, Tiger is worried about his career now. As in the past, he was involved in different controversies and scandals, which created hurdles in his life. He is thinking that this book may create hurdles again.
Tiger is back on the course and doing well. He does not want to get involved in controversies once more.
He believes that if a book is written about him, it must also include his 2009 to 2010 life as well.
Another issue Tiger talked about was the lack of communication between Haney and him. Before writing a book, Tiger said that Haney did not take him in confidence.
They both spent a long time with each other and Tiger does not want their relationship to be spoiled by misunderstandings.
Keeping in mind the subject of the book, several observers have said that Tiger Woods's reaction to Haney's work is understandable.
Although Haney said he avoided mentioning Tiger's personal life in his book and the subjects mainly shed light on the player's career, there have some serious misunderstandings between the two.
