news flash: Hank Haney, Tiger’s swing coach?
So by now you’ve heard that Tiger is leading the Byron Nelson Classic at 8-under, and his good buddy Mark O’Meara is in 2nd, one stroke back. But have you heard the news that Hank Haney, Mark O’Meara’s swing coach, may be providing some instruction to Tiger. Apparently, Dallas-based Haney was following Tiger yesterday and the two went to hit balls at Haney’s club after the round. Wow, this is bigger news than Tiger leading the tournament! If Tiger wins the tournament, maybe the relationship will become permanent. Tiger’s still missing the majority of fairways, so they have plenty to work on. We’ll see…
UPDATE: On Wednesday, Tiger denied Haney’s his coach, calling Haney his “friend.” He did admit picking Haney’s brain now and then. At least Tiger is getting help from someone.
