Appeared 182-183 viewed next to a slightly elevated tee at Torrey Pines...very close to Rocco who I stood right next to and appeared about 181-182. 182 is my best guess for Woods. Spence is right about Mickelson too...approximately 6-1+change not 6-3.

He is more likely 181 than 183. 182 is the fairest for Tiger..he just doesnt look a 6 footer and has even said himself "about 6ft"..183 is 0.2 over 6ft..if he was 183 at worst at night he'd claim 6'1 or 6.05'...182 would explain him saying about 6ft as its honest. he should get 181 but could even be as low as 181

Pamco Starting to agree with you although I would give him 182..but it is possible he is only 181. He is towered over by Ernie Els..Looked 2 inches shorter than Mickelson who might not even be a full 6'2 more 6'1.5. The Mickelson 6'3 stuff is BS. He was listed at 6'2 his whole career he magically grew an inch in his 30s? He is 6'3 with boots on maybe. He has a thin frame which give an illusion of being taller. The Obama photo did it for me. Obama is 6'1 and looked over an inch taller

Tiger should at least be downgraded to a flat 6-0 here. Hes no taller than 183cm. Hes admitted it and in recent pictures with 6-5 Peyton Manning Peyton has over SIX inches on Tiger Woods in multiple pictures. He makes Tiger look 5-11 actually. Click Here
I also remember Tiger looking barely 6-0 in many pics with 6-1 Roger Federer.

Saw Tiger upclose at the 2005 American Express Championship at Harding Park. I'm 5'10" in sneakers, and when Tiger walked by me(within 3feet)he appeared 6'1". Minus his golf spikes he probably is 6'0.5", at the least he's a solid 6'.

Not sure why this is turning into the athlete's height section..but if you do a google search for Michael Phelps height, you get 6'3 almost as much as 6'4." One could be a shoes height. I don't think he's shorter than 6'3" though.

They list 6-7 measured Michael Beasley at 6-10 and they listed 6-2 John Starks at 6-5 so why not?
Besides 6-4.75 is basically 6-5 anyway. That figure looks accurate here.

Virtually the same height, in 2 pictures Jordan looks slightly taller but in 1 picture Kobe looks slightly taller. Too close to tell who is taller. Certainly suggests that the 6'4.75" measurement for Kobe could be right.

Looks 6-4 with Wade but he appears to be slouching slightly. 6-4.75 seems dead on for Kobe. He's thin at only 200 pounds now so he can appear taller.

I saw all of these guys at the Fred Mayer Challenge in Portland. 1998, I was 5'11" at the time. I saw Jack Nichlaus in person. 5'9 1/2" at his best. Which means Tiger is straching to make it to 6'0" John Daly is listed at 5'11". When I was 5'11" he was an easy 4 inches shorter then me. I could see the top of his head. It shocked me so much I made sure when he passed again I was on level ground. I looked Phil Mickelson in the eye when I was also 5'11. He claims he is 6'2". That is a joke. Now looking at pictures of Phil and Tiger next to each other I dunno if Tiger is 5'11, maybe just the fact he is so slim makes him look bigger on TV.

He could be 6'2" viper...the Kobe pic is a bit confusing as Kobe looks to have 4-5inches on him (given he's leaning in abit) which would put Kobe (assuming Phelps is 6'2") at about 6'6"- 6'6.5" which we know he's not.

I saw Tiger up close at the American Express Championships in San Francisco. He walked within 3 feet of me by the gallery rope, and it was clear to me that he is 6'0-6'1. I think the 6'0.5 is legit. Btw, I'm 5'10 and Tiger was 2-3" taller than myself.

First of all, with no doubt, Thiery Henry is 6'2. Official sites, also many photos prove that. By the way, just look at the Gillete commercial closely. Tiger Woods has bigger head, torso and the other parts of his body that the rest. I doubt he's more than 185. What is more, Roger Federer is stated as 185. He looks much shorter than Sharapova, who is 188. Therefore the Gillete's commercial is just a Photoshop work, like most of the commercials. Regards.

Secondly Tiger's not well built.
Thirdly he is 6 feet tall not more not less.

I think you're seeing taller golfers for a few reasons. Equiptment is getting better and it's easier than it has been in the past to get custom clubs for taller players. It is also a distance oriented game right now with average PGA Tour courses being 7300 yards or so. Tall players have an easier time generating distance because of a wider swing arc, and they don't have to try and force the distance with excessive arm, hand, hip speed. Also, we're just getting taller in general. And with the growing popularity of the sport, more people of all sizes will be exposed and have a choice to play where they may have chosen sports that favor height like Basketball or Volleyball.
Would have to agree with Jackie as far as most golfers being about 1" smaller than listing height. I live in central florida and have been to many tour events and have noticed this tendency to inflate height in the tour guide as well.

Agree on this for a max for Tiger. He is noticeably shorter than Faldo / Els / Vijay. Was at a PGA event and noted that almost all of the golfers are about 1" smaller than their listed heights. Mickelson looked closer to 6-1 than 6-2. definitely not 6-3. Some exceptions, who looked as tall as their listing, were John Daly (5-11), Vijay (6-3), Sergio Garcia (5-10), Bubba Watson (about 6-2.5), and Luke Donald (5-9). Pat Perez looked 2" shorter than Adam Scott and both are listed 6-0.

mike, alot of things could effect the perception of height in a commercial like that. How big are their shoes? Is one of them in lifts? Who's closer to the camera? I've seen that commercial and don't see that much of a difference at all between Tiger and Federer. With all that said I can again say that I have seen him (Tiger) in person a couple of times and am 100% sure he is not 6'2". At least not when he's wearing golf shoes.

tiger woods height does not make sense
there's this gilette commericial with roger henry(something like that I think a soccer player), tiger woods, and roger federer standing beside each other. roger is like 1 inch shorter than tiger woods... but on celebheights it says he's 6'1.25. either tiger woods is 6'2 or roger federer is 5'11.5

Would hafta agree with Ted 100%. Have also met both of them, never got pics but standing close enough to shake hands with them both. Mickelson is a bit of a sloucher but is a solid 6'2". They were both very nice and chatty as well.

i have met both tiger woods and phil mickelson in person and have pictures of myself standing next to both of them. Dont now how to load them so youll have to take my word for it. I am just under 6 ft.- 5 ft 11.8. Tiger is about an inch taller. 6ft 1 or just under. Phil Mickelson is about 6 foot 2 or 2 inches taller.

Have been to quite a few tour events and have met some of these pros in person. Most of those heights in the PGA Tour guide are up about an inch. Tiger is def. over 6' as I am just under 6' in shoes and he is taller than me but not much, prob 6'1" in shoes is a fair est. And I also believe being VERY tall is a disadvantage. But, look at the top money leaders and you'll notice that the majority of them are in the 6'1" to 6'3" range, like Tiger, Ernie, Phil, Fyruk, Vijay. So being kinda tallish is an advantage as you have a naturally wider swing arc and power to spare. No need to force it, look how easy Ernie Els swings and how far he hits it......

Tiger Woods is not 6'2" - from his own mouth he said 6feet and about a 1/2inch, but he didn't say with or without shoes. Who cares, he is well built, and the best golfer on the planet, a nice young man with values and he's a great role model for young people.

I just visited the pga site, and I gotta say, wtf is with all these tall golfers? Who knew Davis Love III is 6'3", Stewart Cink is 6'4", etc. Randomly clicking on the names, it seemed like every second one that came up was 6'2" or so. Sure there was the odd one like K.J. Choi who's 5'8, but I'd say most of them were over 6'0", which makes no sense at all. Height isn't really even an advantage in the game of golf... so either all these heights are inflated... or... well, I'm just going to go ahead and assume that all these heights are inflated.

Hey all. I live about 10 minutes away from the Oakmont Country Club in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I go to a gym that is even closer; about 5 minutes away from Oakmont. Yesterday, on June 11th, I went after work, around 3:30 PM, and none other than Tiger Woods was there. It was awesome seeing him in person. At one point he and his trainer were using the bench right next to me. Tiger was standing in the way of the weights, so I had to say "excuse me" to get passed. I am 5'10'', and he was a little taller than I expected. He was standing, as far as I could tell, straight up, and we were both wearing basic sneakers. I would put him at a strong 6 feet or even 6' 1''. I have friend that are 6', and Tiger seemed a little taller when I walked by. Anyway, thought I'd put in my 2 cents.

Spence's pic is not really definitive; you can't see the ground; golf courses obviously are not all that flat. Jordan looks closer to the camera; look at the angle of Wood's gaze, its not straight to the side, its forward and to the side. He may well be 6'0" but you couldn't tell from that picture. Half an inch doesn't really matter to me.

I think 6ft is just about right. If you compare pics of Woods next to Teri Hatcher and Conan O'Brien next to Teri Hatcher, you can see a considerable height difference between O'Brien (6'4) and Woods (6'0). O'Brien towers over Hatcher (who's wearing high heels) while Woods is much closer to Hatcher, although still taller.

I remembered thinking that he was only 2 inches taller than myself, so 6 foot, maybe 6-0.5 in the morning as it was mid-day. Darn close to 184cm.

Tucker is a pretty strong 6'1" and Tiger looks his height.. but not really any bigger.
I'd say 6'1 even is best bet for Woods.

Well, these pics sure do confirm he is at least 6-0, and possibly 6-1. He looks virtually the same height as Chris Tucker, maybe a half inch shorter give or take. Plus look at the pic with 5-9 combine Ronde Barber, easily has over 3 inches on him, and maybe 4.

Also where are all these Tiger under 6 foot sightings coming from?? Ive seen the guy from far away once at a golf tourney in 99, but I couldnt get an exact pinpoint measurement on him. He is at the very least 6-0, Im sure of that.

Rob, Ive seen Faldo up close in person, and he really is a legit 6-3 guy. He actually can appear taller then that at times. I I hope to see Tiger up close an in person at the Masters this spring to see If my 6-0.5 estimate is spot on.

Ive come to the conclusion that Tiger is between 6-0-6-1 as well.

Editor Rob: I remember that moment also. But, I also remember last year when Tiger received the green jacket from Phil Mickelson. Tiger and Phil stood the same height and I know Phil Mickelson is listed at 6-2 everywhere you look. He always does have a slight slouch, though. Could Mickelson not be 6-2 ? Is Tiger really 6-2 ? I'm not really sure which way to go there.

Tiger's official website has him at 6-2, but PGATOUR.com (player bios) has him at 6-1. However, a quote from former Stanford basketball coach Mike Montgomery regarding the famous Stanford alum (Sports Illustrated October 1997):"You know, Tiger is a heck of a basketball player. At 6-2, solid, and a darn good ball handler, he would make a great point guard."

Bunch of pics with "6-2" Mickelson on Google.. but cant ever find one with Mickelson not slouching.. If he stands up straight, you get the impression he'll have .5" on Woods.. Maybe 1". Then again, how tall is Mickelson really?
I think Woods is a weak 6'2 at best... I'd go with that 6'1 high on golfweb.com

this guy is 6-2 with 70s spike golf shoes on. Tiger is 5-10 and a half barefoot.

Golf site that has his height at 6'1" which is probably more realistic.

I just walked past Tiger on the way back from diner. I'm 6'2" and my wife is 6'. Tiger was shorter than either one of us. Easily!

Yeah right, whenever someone doesn't want to admit something, it's always a trick. Benny why don't you explain exactly how both pictures are camera angle tricks?

That Colin Montgomerie pic is a camera angle trick. That said even if you did compare him to another legit 6'2er, how do you not know if the second isn't 6'2.5 or so forth. This would make both of them 6'2, but one could be a few cm if not 3/4 or more of an inch taller and not counting it.

Tiger is close to 6'1" no shorter than 6'.05". I attended the U.S. Open this year and was 10 feet from him at one point.. He looked tall. And it may not be wise to use Vijay Singh as a guide because that guy is closer to 6'4" than 6'2" I was 5 feet from the guy at one point and he is tall. No doubt he is taller. I am between 5'8" and 5'9" and felt short next to him. But I can tell you Tiger didn't look to be struggling to reach 6'0" like "anonymous" is suggesting below.

Colin Montgomerie is always listed as 6'1, and he is taller than Tiger.

Again, most people agree that Chris Tucker is a solid 6'1", I've posted numerous times, shots of him with Tucker and Ray Romano where Tiger looks about an inch taller than Tucker, and slightly shorter than Romano. If Romano is indeed not 6'3" like some of us claim, this could push down Tucker and Woods' heights.
