Leading junior golfers will get a first-hand look at Tiger Woods at the New Zealand Open at Paraparaumu next month.
Thirty-three juniors, representing every region in New Zealand, will be Woods' special guests at a clinic given by the world No 1.
Open spokesman Ian Hepenstall said the youngsters' chance to see Woods had come from his New Zealand caddie Steve Williams, who is funding the juniors through his Steve Williams Foundation, established at last year's NZ Open.
The juniors will attend the closed-door clinic given by Woods off-course for invited guests on January 10, following his first round at the Open. After the clinic, they will get special tuition from two American professionals who are friends of Williams.
