MOST AMATEURS want to tee their driver high and let it fly. But during the 2006 Open Championship, Tiger Woods took an alternative approach: a high-powered, low-flying long-iron “stinger.” The result? A second-straight Open Championship and third overall.
Woods has long been known for playing chess while the rest of the field played checkers. Using this stinger shot at Royal Liverpool and other Open venues allowed him to find the most effective way to get ahead of the competition, using a wrinkle most golfers overlook.
