Admit it. You're as guilty as the rest of us when it comes to warming up for your round. Your so called 'warm-up' involves stepping onto the first tee, swinging your driver a couple of times and away you go. Well there's a reason Tiger Woods has won 14 majors and has 80 PGA Tour victories. Here's a breakdown of Tiger's pre-round routine as he got ready for day one at the Hero World Challenge.

11:07 - 11:44 a.m Heads down to the driving range. Starts off hitting wedge shots to different targets at different yardages before switching to short irons, shaping his shots with fades and draws. He then hits a few long iron shots before pulling out his fairway wood and practices shots from off the deck and off the tee. Takes out his driver and bombs a few shots, practising shot-shape control with fades and draws. Finishes with a few more wedge shots, working his way down from 100 yards to around 40 yards.
