Tiger Woods Drops Bombshell: The Surprising Reason Behind His Sunday Red Revealed in Side-Splitting Chat with Jimmy Fallon! Video below

Tiger Woods, undeniably one of the most successful sports figures in history, has a distinctive association with a particular color: red. Throughout his illustrious career, he’s sported red golf shirts on Sundays, and occasionally on Mondays for playoffs, like his unforgettable triumph at the 2008 U.S. Open. Over the decades, the shade may have varied, but the red—and the winning—have remained constant.

But why did this tradition take root? Some speculated it was a nod to his alma mater, Stanford University. Others thought it might simply be his favorite color. And then there were those who wondered if Mars held some special significance for him. However, the truth is none of the above.

During an appearance on “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon, Tiger revealed the origins of his iconic Sunday red attire, coinciding with the launch of his new apparel line, Sun Day Red. In a candid moment, he shared, “It comes from my mom. My mom thought it was my being a Capricorn, whatever,” he explained, referencing his mother, Tida. “It was my power color or some B.S. thing like that. So I end up wearing red, winning some junior golf tournaments. And then, to spite her, I wore blue. And I did not win those tournaments. So mama’s always right.”

Tiger’s revelation sheds light on a charming aspect of his journey and serves as a testament to the wisdom of mothers everywhere. It’s a gentle reminder that sometimes, listening to mom’s advice can lead to unexpected success.
