Tiger Woods makes appearance on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon ahead of his clothing line's launch

Tiger Woods, the golf legend, made a brief 8-minute appearance on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, April 30. The appearance came one day before the launch of Tiger Woods' Sun Day Red's men's clothing line.

Tiger Woods,48, stated that the inspiration behind the clothing line was to design something for athletes to elevate their performances.

"It's about athletes being first and designing something for the athlete so that we can perform at a higher level. Here we are with Sun Day Red."

He said his clothing line was named Sun Day Red as he had won many tournaments wearing red.

Woods also explained how Red became his favourite colour. While talking to Jimmy Fallon, Woods said:

"My mom thought that (red) was my power color, or some BS thing like that, so I end up wearing red and end up winning some golf tournaments. And then to spite her, I wore blue,nand I did not win those tournaments. So Mom is always right."

Woods sported a blue T-shirt featuring the logo of "Sun Day Red" across the chest during the show. Sun Day Red was a-nnounced in February at a Los Angeles event before the Genesis Invitational. He was seen wearing it at the Genesis Invitational and then at the Augusta National Golf Club.
