Year after year Tiger Woods strives for nothing but the best. He puts in long hours and achieves things that are not achievable by some of the finest golfers in the world today. So far in his golf career he has set the standard and everyone else is playing follow the leader behind him.

What is most admirable of Tiger Woods is not his impressive low scores on the golf course but his act of leadership for many young kids around the world. Tiger Woods is truly a man that cares for youth and encourages many to do their best in what ever they put their mind to. Plus Tiger is a man of his words, of course when you're the number one golfer in the world you're going to bring in your fair share of paychecks. Yet, Tiger Woods donates a large some of his winnings to charities like the Tiger Woods foundation for underprivelaged children.

On and off of the golf course Tiger Woods is a man of great respect and great pride. He is not a quitter and is a "doer" and a "go getter" in life. He knows what he has to do and how to obtain it and that is why he is my hero.
