Golf fans all say the same thing about Tiger Woods’ walkout song ahead of legend’s TGL debut
On the second night of the TGL’s existence, the biggest name in the sport stepped onto the massive, technology-filled stage he helped build to take golf into the future.
Tiger Woods arrived as one of three competitors in Tuesday night’s showdown between his Jupiter Links Golf Club and Los Angeles Golf Club.
As the last member of the team introduced to the crowd at the SoFi Center, Woods was able to choose his own music to walk to.
It may come as no surprise that Tiger went with Survivor’s 1982 classic rock hit “Eye of the Tiger.”
Fans of the sport reacted to the decision on social media. Many loved the selection, while others said it seemed like the most obvious choice.
“Tiger Wood’s strike on TGL made me want to run through a brick wall. I’m excited #TGL,” wrote one user on X, formerly Twitter.

For his walkout music, Woods chose – perhaps unsurprisingly – the song ‘Eye of the Tiger’
Some found the choice ‘on the nose’, but many others loved the selection at the golf icon
Another wrote: “It seems only right that Tiger Woods walks to Eye of the Tiger.”
‘Tiger walks to Eye of the Tiger. Never seen so much Aura before,” read another post.
Another post said: ‘Tiger Woods’ strike may be the most Tiger thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Dudes rock. #TGL.”
‘Tiger’s strike song: Eye of the Tiger. Had to be the -850 favorite,” another user wrote.
One user, apparently unimpressed with the selection, said: ‘That’s a bit annoying, isn’t it?’
While Tiger’s arrival may have been cause for hype, the play of his TGL team didn’t quite live up to those expectations.
At the time of publication, the evening’s proceedings had progressed to the singles portion, with Jupiter Links trailing 8-1 with six holes to go.
