Tiger Woods, who played with ‘this’, apologizes for the rush of criticism… Crisis of missing the cut

  • February 18, 2023

Tiger Woods (USA) was in danger of missing the cut in his return to the field after 7 months.

Woods made 2 birdies and 5 bogeys in the 2nd round of the PGA Tour Genesis Invitational (total prize money of $20 million) held at the Riviera Country Club (par 71) in Palisades, California on the 18th (Korean time). He tied it up and shot a 3-over par 74.

The sunset prevented 14 fighters from completing round 2 and making the cut impossible.

This tournament is a tournament that Woods showed up in about 7 months after missing the cut at the Open in July last year and entering rehabilitation and training.

The previous day, Woods performed well in the first round with a 2 under par 69.

Max Homa, the 2021 event champion and winner of the Farmers Insurance Open on the 29th of last month, took the sole lead with 10 under par 132 strokes.

World No. 3 Jon Rahm (Spain) is tied for 2nd place with an interim total of 9 under par 133 strokes and is aiming for his third win of the season. , Kim Joo-hyung (21) is tied for 33rd with 1 under par and 141 strokes.

Meanwhile, Tiger Woods apologized after being criticized for playing with a sanitary pad during a match.

Woods slipped a sanitary pad to his partner Justin Thomas (USA) at the 9th hole in the first round. It was a prop prepared in advance to tease Thomas when his tee shot flew farther than Thomas. When Thomas was handed a sanitary pad, he burst into laughter.  메이저사이트

Woods and Thomas are close friends, like real brothers, but controversy arose when the scene was captured on camera and spread through social media. After the second round on the 18th, Woods said, “It was a joke. It wasn’t a bad intention,” he apologized, saying, “I’m sorry if I hurt anyone in any way.”
