Tiger Woods collectibles continue to defy economic downturns, with items from his career fetching impressive sums. The latest record-breaking sale? A unique handwritten letter from 18-year-old Tiger Woods discussing racism in golf, which recently sold for $25,620 at Goldin Auctions.
The letter, addressed to a fan named Chad Jones, reveals Woods’ early experiences with racism in the sport. In the letter, Woods acknowledges the issue and explains the racial slurs he faced, even receiving a death threat during his PGA Tour debut in 1992. He also discusses his father’s military background and the jealousy it sparked among some at the Navy Golf Course.
This rare piece of memorabilia not only highlights Woods’ early challenges but also saw its proceeds donated to the Tiger Woods Foundation, thanks to Jones’ generosity.
