‘Emperor’ Tiger Woods, presence with 3R Eagle… sanitary napkin water apple
Tiger Woods (48), the ‘golf emperor’ who returned to the field after 7 months, showed his presence in the 3rd round.
Woods scored an eagle and a birdie in the third round of the PGA Tour Genesis Invitational (total prize money of $20 million) held at the Riviera Country Club (par 71) in Pacific Palisades, California on the 19th (Korean time). He tied for 26th by tying 3 and 1 bogey and reducing 4 strokes.
Woods, who recorded an interim total of 3 under par and 210 strokes with 4 under par 67, tied for 26th with Justin Thomas (USA) and Jason Day (Australia). It is the first time in nine months that Woods has passed the cut on the PGA Tour since the PGA Championship in May last year. If he finishes up to the 4th round, he will complete one game on the PGA Tour since the Masters Tournament (47th place) in April of last year.
Aftereffects of a traffic accident in February 2021, Woods, who seemed to end his career as a player last year due to poor physical condition, entered the third round and showed an activity that reminded him of his heyday. 바카라사이트
After waiting for the results of the remaining games, Woods managed to pass the cut, but came back to life in the third round. Woods, who recorded an average drive shot distance of 306.4 yards, showed a stable shot feeling overall.
Woods, who started on the 10th hole, caught a birdie from the first hole and finished the first nine holes with only two birdies without a bogey. The eagle from the first hole (par 5) of the second half reminded me of the heyday. In the rough, the second shot with an iron was placed 1m inside the hole cup, reducing two strokes. Although he committed the only bogey of the day on hole 5, it was an impressive game overall.
Tied for 10th place (6 under par, 207 strokes) and 3 shots behind the group, you can expect to enter the top 10 for the first time after returning.
Woods, who was on the cutting board for ‘belittling women’, made an official apology prior to the third round. When Justin Thomas (USA), whom he played with in the 9th hole in the first round, had few tee shots, Woods caused controversy by handing him a sanitary pad in the sense of ‘playing like a woman’. Woods said the next day, “It was a joke. It wasn’t a bad intention. But she bowed her head, saying, “I’m sorry if I hurt anyone.”
Meanwhile, Korea’s Kim Joo-hyung and Lim Seong-jae tied for 45th at 1 under par.
