Tiger Woods has been posting far more regularly on social media recently.
Whether it’s meeting Barcelona stars Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, free diving for lobster in the Bahamas or his daughter Sam’s picture of the solar eclipse, the 14-time major champion has been giving his millions of followers a greater glimpse into his personal life.
