Tiger Woods has docked up his $20m superyacht in the Hamptons ahead of the US Open next week, according to US news site pagesix.com.
The 155ft-long yacht is where Woods will spend his time away from the course during the tournament week as he attempts to win his 15th major title at Shinnecock Hills.
The 14-time major winner has reportedly docked up at Montauk Yacht Club just down the road from Shinnecock on Long Island, New York.
