Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red Company: What Is the Meaning of the Name?
What is the meaning behind the Sun Day Red name? Woods is leaning on a play on words from his tradition of wearing the signature red shirt on Sundays.
“Tiger Woods in red on Sundays: it’s an image etched in golfing history – as iconic as his swing and as legendary as his wins,” Sun Day Red’s official website details. “A strong believer in lucky colors, Tiger’s mother Kultida saw red as a symbol of strength and dominance, and once Tiger started winning in red, those beliefs solidified.
“Today, the Sunday red is more than superstition. It’s a symbol of Tiger’s relentless pursuit of excellence, and a testament to his mental fortitude under the greatest of pressures.”
