Alyn recalled interviewing Woods at Tiger Jam in 2023, where she expected the usual reserved Tiger. Instead, Woods was smiling, joking and even asking her if she wanted to take pictures and make a TikTok together.

According to Alyn, Woods joked that he didn’t really understand TikTok but knew about it because his son loved it. The entire interaction stunned her because it was so different from the Tiger everyone normally sees publicly.
