Tiger turns to Stevie and says, "How's the singing career going?"
Stevie replies, "Not too bad. How's the golf?"
Woods replies, "Not too bad, I've had some problems with my swing, but
I think I've got that right, now."
Stevie: "I always find that when my swing goes wrong, I need to stop
playing for a while and not think about it. Then, the next time I

Incredulous, Tiger says, "You play GOLF?"
Stevie: "Yes, I've been playing for years."

Stevie: "Well, I get my caddy to stand in the middle of the fairway

towards him. Then, when I get to where the ball lands, the caddy moves
to the green or farther down the fairway and again I play the ball
towards his voice."
"But, how do you putt" asks Tiger.
"Well", says Stevie, "I get my caddy to lean down in front of the hole
and call to me with his head on the ground and I just play the ball
towards his voice."
Tiger: "What's your handicap?"
Stevie: "Well, actually -- I'm a scratch golfer."
Woods, incredulous, says to Stevie, "We've got to play a round sometime."
Stevie: "Well, people don't take me seriously, so I only play for
money, and never play for less than $10,000 a hole. Is that a
problem?"
Woods thinks about it and says, "I can afford that; OK, I'm game for
that.. $10,000 a hole is fine with me. When would you like to play?"
Stevie: "Pick a night

I did see a video of them together. They both loved to play chess and Willie was telling the
crowd about their game the previous evening -- "I whupped his ass".

Ray laughed and told the crowd they were going to have a rematch that evening and wagged
his finger at Willie...
