The diet has everything to do with what you will gain when lifting and the type of lifting. High school football players / college can put on the 25 lbs of muscle in one year even minus steriods.
25 pounds of muscle is impossible to gain in one year unless you're going through puberty/a big time growth spurt, juicing, or you're a mesomorph (in which case you'd probably have problems with your body fat levels and would have to go through a big time cut cycle post-bulk).

It's definitely possible that Tiger's body changes are the result of hard work and maturity - he's not really THAT big. He's physically gifted and is probably at the limits of what his body can achieve naturally, but I wouldn't put the use of HGH or other supplements past him considering his competitive nature and the knowledge we have about so many other top athletes.
