Lesson 278--pull something off


They mean Tiger Woods.
 
 
This phrasal verbs is quite useful.  When you pull something off you accomplish something.  Usually this seems difficult, and when you accomplish it, people are quite surprised.

examples

The Toronto Maple Leafs pulled off an unexpected win against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Nobody know how, but Denise pulled off a fantastic presentation.

Matt and his company pulled off an incredible deal with the Brazilian Petrochemical Company.

Everyone was worried that the company wouldn't be able to pull of the deal and that all of their jobs would be in jeopardy.

That he pulled it off was a miracle.
