Manziel told Golf Digest that he was a huge fan of Woods and had the same putter as Woods as a child.
“I had everything Tiger,” Manziel said. “I wanted to be just like him. I got my dad to get me that Scotty Cameron putter that Tiger used for all of those years. I wanted one exactly like it.”

When Manziel finally got the chance to meet Woods, he was unable to sign an autograph for the then ten-year-old.
Manziel seemed to handle it pretty well for a kid his age.
“I was really bitter about it for a day, but today I don’t really think much of it,” Manziel said. “If I ever run into Tiger at Nike or somewhere, it’ll be a funny story.”
If Woods asks for Manziel’s autograph now, although it’s less likely since he’s a Raiders fan, he should just throw up the money sign.
