The two-part HBO documentary Tiger, chronicling the rise, fall, and comeback of golf icon Tiger Woods, lands on Max on Sunday 28 July.
Originally released in 2021, the documentary offers a detailed and nuanced portrait of Woods‘ life, drawing on extensive archival footage, never-before-seen interviews, and intimate accounts from those closest to him.

Directed by Matthew Heineman and Matthew Hamachek, Tiger is based in part on the bestselling biography Tiger Woods by Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian. The series presents a layered view of Woods as both an elite athlete and a deeply complex figure, tracing his journey from child prodigy to one of the most dominant, and scrutinised, figures in sports history.
