Question: How Much Does Tiger Woods Weigh?
Answer: On Tiger Woods' Web site (tigerwoods.com), his weight is listed at 185 pounds.

Woods has bulked up quite a bit over the years, adding a lot of muscle, and if you compare images of the current Tiger Woods to the Woods from the late 1990s you'll notice how skinny he looks in those earlier photos.

When Woods turned pro, in 1996, his weight was in the 150s. A Sports Illustrated article from September 1996 lists Woods' weight at 158; a newspaper article from January 1997 pegs Woods at 155 pounds.

By 2004, however, the PGA Tour media guide listed Woods at 180 pounds. And, as noted, Woods' Web site now lists his weight as 185 pounds.
