Tiger Woods had a busy week at the Genesis Invitational. Between hosting the event and competing inside the ropes, there were few reprieves for Woods.
Riviera once again stifled the tournament host, making him 0-14 at the venue that has become an Achilles heel for the 15-time major champion. His 76-77 weekend performance resulted in a last-place finish for those making the cut and more questions on why his hometown event continues to stump him.
In addition to his lackluster play, Woods found himself in a precarious situation on his final nine [in the final round]. On the par-4 3rd hole — his 12th of the day — Woods’ tee shot hooked left of the fairway, near a fence and a native area. That’s when he found his ball in an unusual spot: a garbage bag.
