An auction featuring TigerWoods' winning irons from his 2000-01 Grand Slam is facing questions of authenticity from the golfer's agent.
Mark Steinberg of Excel Sports Management claimed that the irons are actually still in Woods's possession and not for sale.NBA LEGEND FINED FOR SKIPPING JURY DUTY“Tiger has the authentic set of the Slam irons his his house," he said when reached for comment.
Golden Age Auctions stands by listing: “We would not put anything up for sale we weren’t wholly confident in.” https://t.co/ekkEAHoOEqThe auction, organized by Golden Age Auctions, which began Wednesday, features 25 other pieces of Woods memorabilia, including other clubs and autographed materials. The auction ends April 9. Steinberg only commented on the irons and wedges from the Grand Slam. He did not respond to requests for comment from the Washington Examiner.
"The two Titleist executives who were in charge of Tiger’s clubs have signed sworn affidavits asserting their legitimacy, one took a polygraph and passed it, and the original buyer in 2010 did his due diligence as well," Golden Age founder Ryan Carey said."And just take a look at the 8-iron wear mark. That club was clearly struck in the dead center thousands of times by the greatest ball-striker in the world.
"In our opinion, the Tiger Slam irons are the preeminent golf collectible in the hobby," the listing reads."Whether or not they achieve their deserved seven figure sale in this auction or at some point in the future, we can be confident that these clubs will be one of the most coveted golf collectibles for decades to come, especially as Tiger's place in history is further appreciated in the rear view mirror.
