After nearly acing the par-3 14th hole on Friday, Woods' tee shot rolled off the back of the green and settled on the fringe. The ball fell to the ground when the fan removed his jacket, so Woods was given a free drop. On the next hole, he made a 12-foot birdie putt to get to 5 under in the round. "I think the only time he put himself in a bad spot was seven, and that was a matter of 3 yards," LaCava said. He chipped up to 22 feet and left the putt short to drop back to 4 under. He cut his second shot around a greenside bunker, and his ball stopped 3 feet past the hole. 10 and nearly made a 7-footer on the par-5 11th. Woods matched his lowest score to par in a round since he carded a 4-under 68 after 18 holes of the Masters in November 2020. After posting bogeys in three of his last four holes on Friday, putting him in danger of missing the weekend at the tournament he hosts, Woods was much better on Saturday. I made a few adjustments today, and some of the putts went in." He carded an eagle and three birdies, and he didn't record a bogey until the 16th hole he played. "I felt like I made some nice adjustments with my putting, and that was the thing that held me back yesterday," Woods said.

Tiger Woods has come under fire for the bizarre tampon prank with Justin Thomas that has overshadowed his return to PGA Tour action at the Genesis ...

Woods' iconic golf career has been punctured by several controversial moments that have derailed his personal life. It was not intended to be that way. “If I offended anybody that was not the case. We play pranks on one another all the time and virally I think this did not come across that way but between us it was different.” “Apology starting with ‘If I offended anyone’ is no apology," four-time Olympic gold medallist Johnson wrote on Twitter. [The 15-time major champion](https://www.dailystar.co.uk/latest/tiger-woods) shared the joke with close friend Thomas during Thursday's opening round after outdriving him.

It betrayed him Friday though, and eventually the rest of his game followed suit. "Just didn't make the putts early and the middle part of the round when I had those opportunities. Thomas slapped it to the ground and Woods laughed and playfully put his arm around Thomas' shoulder as they walked down the fairway.

Tiger Woods apologized after handing fellow golfer Justin Thomas a tampon during the first round of the Genesis Invitational.

"Just didn't make the putts early and the middle part of the round when I had those opportunities. And they weren't very hard putts, I just hit bad putts and obviously had a very bad finish, too." Woods is in danger of missing the cut at the tournament, after finishing his second round at one-over-par. "If I offended anybody, it was not the case, it was just friends having fun. It was just we play pranks on one another all the time and virally I think this did not come across that way, but between us it was -- it's different." "It was supposed to be all fun and games and obviously it hasn't turned out that way."

Tiger Woods is cheered wildly just walking to the tee, though this time his golf was the source. He had a 67 that didn't allow him to pick up any.

Tiger Woods is being talked about for all of the wrong reasons after the tampon incident.

But…he is Tiger Woods, and the eyes of the world are always on him, so it was a very poor choice of joke, because although his intent was to innocently poke fun at his friend the impact is that Tiger perpetuates misogynistic stereotypes for fun which is never a good look. When not changing lives one swing tweak at a time Emma can be found enjoying life raising her three daughters and when time allows in the gym. His intent was to have a laugh with his close friend on the course. [Tiger Woods](https://www.golfmonthly.com/features/the-game/things-you-didnt-know-about-tiger-woods-162453) thought about any of the ramifications his actions may have?Absolutely not, in fact I’d say my days of looking to Tiger Woods as a moral compass on any issue ended quite abruptly in 2009. Emma has worked in the golf industry for more than 20 years. *RAGE* They fail to see the irony of how upset they are by people with opinions different to theirs.

The Women's Global Empowerment Fund has slammed Tiger Woods after he passed a tampon to his golf partner Justin Thomas in what he described as a 'prank'

In Pacific Palisades, the American champion did not disappoint as he closed the first round of the Genesis Invitational with a score of 69 (-2) shots.

Third (also in the world ranking) with 65 (-6), the Spaniard aims to return to the throne by ousting Scottie Scheffler, only 44/o with 70 (-1) in California. Despite a stellar field, with 23 of the best 25 in the world (and a prize pool of 20 million dollars), Woods stole the show from the other big names in the discipline, from Jon Rahm to Rory McIlroy, among the protagonists of the opening lap . The American champion closed the first round of the Genesis Invitational, a PGA Tour tournament, in 27th place with a score of 69 (-2) shots. Fresh from the exit to the cut at the Phoenix Open, the Turinese is 121st with 76 (+5). After the first 18 holes, the Americans Max Homa and Keith Mitchell are at the top with 64 (-7).

Tiger Woods shot a 4-under 67 on Saturday at the Genesis Invitational, moving him to 3-under for the tournament heading into Sunday.

Caught between clubs and feeling a little wind in his face, he hit a cut with a 5-iron that landed toward the front of the green and rolled inches by the cup before settling 3 feet away for what amounted to a tap-in eagle. The Spaniard has not finished out of the top 10 since August, and he is going for his fifth win over his last nine starts. He opened with a 15-foot birdie putt, missed a good chance on the par-5 11th and then raised the putter in his left hand as his 25-foot birdie putt from the fringe on the par-3 14th dropped for another birdie. But the wind shifted, a cold front arrived in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and he shot 79 and withdrew. And then on the weekend, he limped his way to a pair of 78s. He returned 14 months later to play in the Masters and made the cut, a remarkable feat.

Nothing to see here and we’re on to No. Chips this one just onto the green and lets it release to the hole, coming to rest inside four feet for a simple up-and-down par. Didn’t have much green to work with and rolls this one past the cup, leaving a testy 11 footer to save par. Even though he didn’t find the fairway he still poked that one a good 320 yards, leaving right around 100 to the flag. B-e-a-utiful swing from Tiger here finds the fairway just short of a bunker that encroaches on the right side. No damage here on the second as Tiger cleans up his par with ease. Another birdie putt but this one wasn’t simple in the least bit. Hell of a start to the day. Goes with 3-wood off the tee and misses the fairway to the left, a rare occurrence this week seeing as his miss has been right. The last time he made a cut, he withdrew from the PGA Championship after the third round last year.

At 3 under, he sits in a tie for 26th alongside the likes of Justin Thomas and Viktor Hovland.

Homa and Rahm, playing in the final group on Saturday alongside Mitchell, battled to shoot the best round of the day throughout Saturday's third round. With Jon Rahm standing at 15 under galloping out in front of Max Homa at 12 under and Keith Mitchell not far behind, it looks like one of those three golfers will take home the Genesis Invitational on Sunday afternoon at Riviera Country Club.

Tiger Woods' Sunday red is a color with ample meanings around the world, so we explained some of the science behind the color choice.

Regardless of the reasons for Tiger Woods’ preference for red, it is clear that the color red has a strong psychological impact on people. This property of red may also explain why red is often used to signal danger or caution, as in the case of a red warning light or the red “danger” zone on a thermometer. Some people believe that this is a superstitious ritual for Woods, and that he believes that the color red brings him good luck. The makeup of a red wavelength appears striking. The vibrant hue that is often associated with strong emotions such as passion, love, and anger. In Thailand, Sunday’s color is red.

"I pulled off my jacket and it fell right there. Woods was therefore allowed to take a free drop and was then able to escape from the unusual incident with a par. The fan in question had no idea how the ball had landed there as he explained to Woods and a rules official where he was stood so it could be determined where a drop should take place. He discovered his sliced tee-shot on the 13th on Saturday had in fact fallen into a fans pocket after his drive had veered right towards the packed galleries at Riviera. An errant drive from Tiger Woods somehow landed in a fan's pocket during the golf icon's impressive return to action on the

Woods grabbed headlines for making the young girl's day, but apparently it was his caddie who came up with the idea.

No one would have blamed him if he never noticed Quinn and her poster on his way to the 18th tee. LaCava had a marker and a glove ready, too, like the top-level caddie he is. [checking off the "Meet Tiger Woods" box](https://www.golfdigest.com/story/tiger-woods-fan-interactions-saturday-riviera).

At first, spectators around the 13th hole didn't know where Tiger Woods' tee shot went. Then, one felt a bump in their jacket.

“I didn’t even know,” the fan told the PGA Tour. So he stationed himself on the right side of the hole — knowing Woods’ tendency to hit right — and started informing the other spectators around him that “Tiger’s going to hit over here.” The fan had a jacket wrapped around his waist, and when he untied it for tournament officials, “a ball dropped off and it was his,” he [told the PGA Tour](https://twitter.com/PGATOUR/status/1627061026645753858?s=20).

He will be a man constantly trying to reconcile the logistics of his body with the desires of his heart. Even if I played four days at home, it's not the same as adrenaline, it's not the same as the system being ramped up like that -- the intensity, just the focus that it takes to play at this level. Whether his health improves and he's able to put the hours of playing and walking that he would like or the additional tournaments he needs to stay sharp remains to be seen, although Woods himself has said several times that that's improbable. A 67 on Saturday in Round 3 that was better than most of the top players in the world. Woods closed his week with a 2-over 73 to end his tournament at 1 under and secure a top-50 finish on the leaderboard. Tiger Woods faded to the finish line on Sunday at the Genesis Invitational in his first PGA Tour start since the end of 2020.

Of course, that mattered very little on Sunday at the Genesis Invitational, and it matters very little in every official PGA Tour round Woods tees it up in. Yes ...

"I can do carts at home, I can do that, I can hit balls, chip and putt," Woods said. "It's not the same as the system being ramped up like that, the intensity, just the focus that it takes to play at this level. The mind and body will both say yes to Augusta National in April, that much we know. But that's it for the rest of my career. Those are also a pair of "elevated events," an idea Woods had a hand in developing. That "streak" is his losing streak at the iconic L.A. "That's it, that's all my body will allow me to do. He's mentioned many times over the last year that he'll likely only play the majors and maybe a few other tournaments. No matter how much—I'm very good at simulating that at home, but it's just not the same as being out here and doing it." Still wish I could have gotten within a touch of the leaders, but today they're running away with it. "It was progress, but obviously I didn't win," said Woods. One under for the tournament, two over for the day.

Woods completed four rounds for the first time since last year's Masters but didn't indicate if he'll play before this year's Masters.

Tiger Woods shot 2-over 73 Sunday to wrap up his 72 holes at the Genesis Invitational, an accomplishment in itself.

Taking that into consideration, it's likely Woods doesn't play again until the Masters. Yet, there were still moments, highlighted by Woods' eagle on the par-5 first hole on Saturday in which Woods nearly holed his second shot for albatross. The ebb and flow of that, it's hard. On Sunday, Woods carded five bogeys; he did the same in Friday's second round before making the cut on the number. Game-wise, Woods was unsurprisingly rusty, especially on the greens.

I did three of the four last year and hopefully I can do all four this year. As for the sharp end of this tournament at Riviera, Rahm won by two shots from Homa. For now, amazement can legitimately be drawn from the fact he finished at all, which is no small thing for a 47-year-old man who can hardly walk. As with the previous couple of days, the strides through that mangled right leg became laboured around the turn, but there remains enough magic in Woods's swing for the 15-time major champion to inspire a sense of curiosity about what he might achieve if his aching body permits. My goal every year is the four majors. For now he limps on to vast galleries with surprised expressions.
