Tiger Woods.'”Redknapp’s decision was totally fair, as he looked after his wife instead, and he spoke in good spirits when looking back.In fact, he joked how being denied the chance to play alongside Woods saved him some embarrassment on the course…“That would’ve been a great experience,” Redknapp added. “I would have probably been a bundle of nerves playing with Tiger, I would have probably missed the ball or something on the first! “But no, I would have loved it. What an experience to play with Tiger Woods.”Woods is one the greatest ever golfers and Redknapp would have played with him if he didn’t pull outGettyRedknapp is a huge golf fan, but the horse racing takes priority for the ex-Premier League managerGettyDoes Redknapp play golf regularly?
