14-year-old Chinese golfer gets tips from Tiger ahead of historic Masters debut

World, meet Guan Tianlang.

CHINESE AMATEUR GUAN Tianlang will make history this week when he tees off at Augusta National and becomes the youngest player ever to play in the Masters.

Pretty daunting for a 14-year-old, no?

Guan was invited to get to know the famous Georgia course by playing a practice round yesterday with four-time champion Tiger Woods who won his first green jacket in April 1997, 18 months before Guan was even born.

There was time for a few pointers from Tiger, playing partner Dustin Johnson and another former Masters winner Ben Crenshaw along the way.
