Woods is ‘still hurting from laughing so hard’ despite being hammered on his TGL bow. Tiger Woods’ son Charlie issued a damming verdict of his father’s TGL debut after witnessing the Jupiter Links Golf Club suffer a 12-1 thrashing at the hands of their Los Angeles Golf Club rivals.
Woods junior watched his father, Max Homa and Kevin Kisner humbled by a LAGC trio featuring Collin Morikawa, Justin Rose and Sahith Theegala and afterwards the teenager summed up the defeat by admitting his father’s team were “not very good”. For his part, Woods agreed, suggesting his side were so bad they left him “still hurting from laughing so hard”.
“We were entertaining,” Woods said. “We hit a lot of shots. I think the people here, they got to see how bad pros can be. It was just a boat race. Oh, my goodness. But we had a great time. “We hit six penalty areas, I had two shots out of a bunker and Kis nearly killed someone.
“I don’t know how much (skill) was evident; I don’t have any golf skills. Hey, this is a start of a new year. We had a great time. Hopefully people tuned in for the entire broadcast.”. TGL is a technology-led indoor golf league developed by Woods and Rory McIlroy.
Six teams compete against each other in a round-robin format over the coming weeks, leading to semi-finals and a best-of-three final in late March. Each week, two teams of three players compete against each other over 15 holes. The opening nine holes feature all three players on each team hitting alternate shots with the final six holes played head-to-head with each player playing two holes.
