Amanda Balionis is back in the news this week, and it relates to an interview she had with Tiger Woods.
Balionis revealed she “lost a lot of sleep” before speaking to Tiger Woods during the early days of her reporting career.
When participating in a Q&A with Links Magazine, the 39-year-old CBS reporter was asked which “athlete or personality you’ve been the most nervous to interview.”
Amanda Balionis revealed her “legs were shaking uncontrollably from nervousness” as she sat down with Tiger Woods.
“Tiger Woods, for sure. When I started with PGATour.com, I think Tiger was my second-ever sit-down interview. I’m very thankful the camera angle was from the waist up; my legs were shaking uncontrollably from nervousness. I lost a lot of sleep before that interview,” Balionis said.
Woods is not as active these days as he used to be, but he continues to be a huge draw for fans. It’s not hard to see why, as he completely revolutionized the sport with 15 major wins and 82 PGA Tour victories.
It’s understandable why Amanda Balionis felt nervous speaking with him.
