A man in his underwear
This year World Golf Championships-CA Championship at Doral Golf Resort and Spa in Miami, the photographer Kyle Auclair was the right place at the right time, Henrik Stenson began the pickling to hit the ball from a water hazard:
"Stenson was two shots back and Tiger (Woods) was in the group behind him. Everyone was following Tiger, if I wanted to get ahead and maybe learn something different. It was Thursday morning, so do not all want the same thing. And it's hard do something different when everybody is following the same group. So I went ahead and got lucky.
"I did not know Stenson would take his clothes. I I was joking, playing to the gallery. Then he took his shirt and thought it might be something big. Then he took his pants. And everybody laughed. And he talked to me because I was the only photographer who was there and saying, "Come on, man, do not take these photos. Ryuji Imada and played with Ben Curtis and I'm excited to take pictures. It took about 16 photos. "
The epitome of a writer from Sports Illustrated
That's what Larry King named Dan Jenkins. Readers lives During the Depression, Jenkins enriched "with his wit and humor in more than 500 articles in SI and more than 20 books, including Dead Solid Perfect, Semi-Tough: A Novel and baby Frances. Although retired, he writes a monthly column for Golf Digest and even started to chirp in 2009.
"To write a beautiful story must first have a winner to someone who has never heard of. The most famous player since it gives prestige to the event. It's much easier to write about Jack Nicklaus href = "http://www.easygolforder.com/article-366-Golf+Tips+From+Jack+Nicklaus.html" target = "_blank"> (golf Jack Tips Nicklaus) than it is to write about someone you've never heard of. It is easier to write about Tiger (Woods).
"We do not root for people who have their roots in journalism. We identify with the stories. When he wrote for Sports Illustrated, which had to absorb the tournament three or four days and Sunday night, which was on time and had to tell a story. Every day was important – but there was always a crucial moment. And then kick the decisive moment of death. It takes some experience. And it takes experience to make things. It runs through entertaining anecdotes and wonderful, but not continue the theme of the story store and use them again.
"I grew up in Texas and I grew up with golf and college football – these are the two things the more important because of Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson and Jimmy Demaret and Lee Trevino. If you do not like golf and college football as a child, she will drown. I want two of them too. Golf is great fun and it's beautiful, chic and elegant it is – but college football is important. People live and die with college football. "
Shooting a tiger
Photographer Fred Vuich took two memorable images of Tiger Woods – one of him to write in a bunker, surrounded by fans in the 2008 U. S. Open at Torrey Pines, and fire coverage Woods hit his tee shot on the 18th hole at Augusta in the Masters in 2001.
"Luck plays a lot in getting a great shot. The image of the bunker Tigre – Robert (Beck) was in place I'd rather be in. I was late, so I took a point against Beck. And my point of view has proven to be better.
"The image of Tiger at Augusta was expected on Wednesday. So we planned on using a special camera. This was before digital. I was surprised to see the photo on the cover of the magazine. He committed the kind of life before. Tiger Coverage was an image. There was one camera without motor. It is manual focus and it's an image. "
