Tiger Woods Tried the Happy Gilmore Swing Prior to His Car Crash

Tiger Woods took to Twitter to hilariously troll Phil Mickelson after winning the PGA Tour's PIP bonus that Phil had thought he won

Tiger Woods doing the Happy Gilmore swing is everything. To celebrate the iconic Happy Gilmore’s 25th anniversary, Taylor Made had Tiger Woods, Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy, Collin Morikawa, Matthew Wolff and Tommy Fleetwood try their hand at the swing that made Gilmore a legend.

With a running start, Team TaylorMade gave it their best shot.

Tiger did a halfway decent job.

Every time somebody asks a professional golfer to do the “Happy Swing” they never actually do it.

They essentially do a slow jog up to the ball and then reset for like an actual golf swing. So Tiger didn’t exactly do it but he’s a good sport.
