2019 Masters: How One Photographer Got Tiger's Iconic Reaction

So many of the best in what’s left of the photography business undoubtedly have stories galore about trying to be in the right spot for Tiger’s winning Reaction. Thankfully, as with past Woods 18th green reactions, there were great images to be had from both behind the green and on the sides.

Kohilo Kinno grabbed a full frame view of Woods that became one of the magazine’s few text-free covers, though there is no story about Kinno’s image and his name is only viewable in a size 3 font. Charming.

Thankfully, Golfweek’s Dan Kilbridge talked to Rob Schumacher about everything that went into getting his iconic shot that became the USA Today masthead, including luck.

Woods’ reaction was so subdued at first that Schumacher thought he might not show any emotion at all in the moments following his 15th career major victory.

“His back is to me and I’m thinking he’s not going to move and he’ll be facing the golfer’s right box,” Schumacher said. “So he made his putt. Slowly walked forward. Picked his ball up then faces toward the center of the green and I thought well, he’s not going to react. Then he slowly rotates counter clockwise and steps towards me in my box.”
