Golf gets an unlucky reputation as a boring pastime Authentic Ben Gedeon Jersey , as not exciting to watch on TV. Yet every season PGA tournaments get top ratings, offering high intensity in the form of courtly leisure. Golf also has had a stereotype as one of the least athletic pastimes鈥攁 handful of hefty figures in the tour supported this argument. Of late, however, we see an offering of skilled athletes displaying feats of strength, grace and skill on par with any other sport. Wholesale jersey goods wouldn’t not look like big business for golf, but a single golfer has products everyone looks for. No man represents this metamorphosis more than Tiger Woods.

Tiger, whose actual first name is Eldrick, burst onto the scene in ’91 as one of the most talented amateur players ever seen, when he won the US Junior Amateur Championship at only fifteen, the youngest ever to win the event. Since the first part of his childhood Tiger had been a precocious golfer, having out-putted Bob Hope on national television at age 3. After making a name by winning the Junior Amateur Championship, he went on to win it 2 more times in a row鈥攖he championship’s only multiple victor. He was the single amateur to make the cut at the Masters at the still maturing age of nineteen. Jersey wholesalers were already seeing the chance to make big bucks off his shirts by this age. When he became 20 he became a professional, and has not looked back since.
