Jimmy Fallon has thrown down the golfing gauntlet to a guy no sane man would ever challenge ... Tiger Woods.
Tiger's greatest challenge?
The late night funnyman will tee-off against Tiger Woods in a round of golf on the Nintendo Wii. Hey, Jimmy may be dumb, but he's not stupid. An avid gamer, Fallon is betting that his skills with the Wii-mote will be greater than Tiger's talents with a virtual putter ... or driver ... or iron ... or sand wedge ... you get the picture.
We first learned of the face-off on Kotaku. According to the pop culture blog, Fallon announced that Woods would be a guest on his show this week (you can also see the announcement on Fallon's Twitter feed). Fallon also said that he really wanted to play the golfing legend at some "Tiger Woods 10" golf on the Wii because it's the only way he'd ever stand a chance.
Be careful what you wish for, Jimbo. Woods, clearly not scared, has accepted the challenge. Viewers can tune in on Thursday night to see if a gamer can beat a tiger at his own game (literally). No matter who wins the contest, expect searches on "tiger woods nintendo wii" to soar.
