As a reader who has read several books about Tiger Woods, I was quite interested in this one given the special relationship that Woods and caddie Steve Williams had during Woods’ incredible stretch of greatness at golf’s four major tournaments. The book did not disappoint as Williams and co-author Evin Priest share some great stories during that special era of golf.


Some of the stories are known by golf fans, such as the time when the Woods-Williams team nearly ran out of golf balls in the bag. Some are not as well known, such as Williams meeting Woods in the parking area of courses as Woods would change to his golf shoes there with his upbringing at public courses where this is the norm. Whether the information is well-known or Sun known until being read here, a reader will be well informed and well entertained by reading them.


While the book certainly goes into details about Woods’ major victories and the statistics (which Williams kept meticulously), what really makes the book a special one is the bond between Woods and Williams. From Woods supporting Williams’ auto racing hobby to signing the flags Williams took from the last hole when Woods won a major, each story and conversation between the two of them was great material. That made the end of their working relationship even tougher to understand but it did seem inevitable.


A reader does not have to be a golf fan to enjoy this book on a great relationship, both personal and professional, between arguably the greatest golfer ever and his caddy during the years when he played his best golf.


I wish to thank William Morrow for providing a copy of the book. The reviews expressed in this review are strictly my own.

If you like professional golf, Tiger Woods, or a good human interest story, "Together We Roared" is a book for you. It is a solid five star book for golf fans everywhere.
Steve Williams, teaming up with Evin Priest, gives readers the behind-the-scenes stories of Tiger Woods' incredible career. Williams shares the good, the bad, and even the ugly. The reader gets to know how two Type A competitors can join forces, conquer the golf world, and have fun doing it.
As the Masters rolls around again, read this book when you're not watching the live action from Augusta.

Together We Roared is a look at the 12 years that Steve Williams caddied for golf phenom Tiger Woods during one of the most talked about periods in Woods career. The book is told in the third-person through the lens of co-author Evin Priest.

Williams had been a caddie for many years, with many well known players, before landing the bag of Tiger Woods. The book chronicles both the working relationship, eventual friendship that developed between Williams and Woods and the unfortunate ending of what could be one of the best ever player/caddie combinations.

While much of the book included things that have been reported previously, there were many details that have been unknown until now, which only provide more insight to how good this pairing really was and how much a golfer relies on their caddie. The book does a good job of showcasing Steve Williams character. It's unfortunate how their partnership ended and the number of years that went on before they ever spoke again.

I was very excited to read this book for so many reasons and I am very glad I got the opportunity to do so. I would highly recommend picking this one up!

I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley.

This is a chronological account of the 12-year period of time when Steve Williams caddied for Tiger Woods at the height of the latter's success. It is not told through the voice of Steve Williams. It is told in the third person, that being co-author Evin Priest. Much of the focus of this chronology is on Tiger, not Steve.

Williams was a high-profile caddie. He and Tiger parted ways soon after Tiger's extramarital affairs were scandalously reported. The book answers questions about what Williams knew and why he and Tiger went their separate ways. Sadly, they never spoke to each other from 2011-2023. A sad outcome after all the success they enjoyed together. And Tiger was even best man at Williams' wedding.

This book is quite flattering to Woods. The author does not overplay Williams' role in Tiger's success. The co-author does a good job of demonstrating the character of Williams.

While there is no new news in this book, the personalities of Woods, Williams and the people and fellow players that Tiger was closest to complemented the historical recap of the golf accomplishments.

WHAT AN AWESOME BOOK!!! Together We Roared was a fascinating look at the 12 year span when Steve Williams caddied for golf superstar Tiger Woods. It covers the years from 1999 until 2011. Which most people consider the pinnacle of Woods’ career that will never be matched by another golfer.

This book was such an interesting read that gives us an up close, behind the scenes look at the greatest span of golf played by a professional. It moved very quickly while still providing many intricate details that lends itself to excellent storytelling.

I have read multiple books, written in many different styles surrounding Tiger’s career and I must say this is probably my favorite that I’ve encountered. Such a refreshing take with new angles regarding the mythical stories that have been written about by plenty of other authors. Tons of interesting stories that included details I wasn’t aware.

I highly recommend this book!!! Special thanks to William Morrow publishing and NetGalley for providing a copy of this book in exchange for my honest and fair opinion.

This is an incredible read for anyone who loves golf, Tiger Woods or the behind the scenes experiences of one of the world’s most famous caddies. It focuses on their experience together from 1999 to 2011, and goes into extensive detail on the various tournaments and events they participated in over those years. It gives insight into the decisions the pair made at critical holes, the joy and disappointment they shared and how the golfer and caddie interacted in their unspoken way. It focuses much less on the personal aspect of either of their lives; so don’t expect much drama or gossip fodder. Instead, if you are a fan of the golfer’s historic success, check this book out when it releases on April 1!
