Woods has announced his new clothing range as part of his expanded deal with TaylorMade, his long-time club manufacturer. Woods wore Nike clothes for 27 years until his split with that brand earlier this year.
“Sunday red is the colour that Tiger has made very famous on Sundays,” David Abeles the TaylorMade chief executive, said in February. “But he plays golf on more than Sundays.”
‘My mum thought red was my power colour’
On The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, Woods discussed the launch of the Sun Day Red range. “It’s about athletes being first, and designing something for the athlete, so that we can perform at a higher level,” he explained. “And here we are with Sun Day Red.”
When the host asked him about the name, Woods said: “Maybe because I’ve won a few tournaments on Sunday, while wearing red…”
He continued: “The red story is actually a good one. It comes from my mum. My mum thought that with me being a Capricorn, it’s my power colour or some BS like that.
“So I ended up wearing red, and winning some junior golf tournaments, and then to spite her I wore blue and I did not win those tournaments. So mum is always right.”
