Tiger Woods goes viral for all the wrong reasons at Riviera

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — Tiger Woods had some explaining to do Friday, about a putter so cold he nearly missed the cut at Riviera, and about a chauvinist prank he played on Justin Thomas in the Genesis Invitational. “It was supposed to be all fun and games and obviously it hasn’t turned out that way,” Woods said. Woods came within inches of an ace on the par-3 14th, his fifth hole of the round, but he missed a 5-foot birdie chance two holes later. “If I chipped it up on top, there’s a chance that it could actually come back to the front part of the green,” Woods said, adding that’s what happened when he tried it Wednesday during the pro-am. “I had two bad calls on the wind on 6 and 9 and end up costing me two shots there,” Woods said.
