Tiger Woods Autograph Golf Balls (They are all fake)
July 4, 2008 Used Golf Balls Comments OffSo here’s the deal with these. Tiger Woods has never, and has said very publicly on several occasions that he WILL NEVER autograph a golf ball.
Another thing to notice is the ball you usually see the fake autograph on. Do you REALLY think that the World’s #1 player is going to sign a Top Flite II XL? Or a MaxFli from the 1980s? Not likely.
Here are a few more references if you still don’t want to believe that your autographed tiger woods ball is fake…

So, how do you tell a real Woods autograph from a fake? It can be difficult. One telltale sign is that if you come across an autographed golf ball, it’s probably a forgery because those who know claim that Tiger doesn’t sign golf balls.
The Irish Examiner has a direct quote from his caddy…Steve Williams.
A guy once offered me $10,000 to get Tiger to sign golfballs. Tiger doesn’t sign golfballs.
So for all to read: ANY BALL YOU SEE AUTOGRAPHED BY TIGER WOODS IS FAKE.

So if you see one of these, you can pass it up, knowing that some other sucker is going to waste his hard-earned money on it. You can think of it as just another used golf ball.
UPDATE: I failed to mention that the ONLY exception to this is the Wheeties Logo Ball that has a PRINTED Autograph on it.
