At last week’s game against Orlando in Orlando, Lebron James met Tiger Woods for the first time. Lebron went up to Tiger, who was sitting court side, and reportedly introduced himself, “Tiger, I’m Lebron.” I haven’t heard anything else about the exchange. Lebron scored 30 points, with 9 rebounds and 6 assists, but his Cavs lost to the Magic, 104-90.
Remarkably, though both are marquee Nike people, the two have never met before. Afterwards, Lebron said he admired Tiger, and put him in the same breath as Jordan, Kobe, Federer — as players who have that same desire to be the best.
