Tiger Woods admitted the apparent after his Jupiter Hyperlinks Golf Membership took a drubbing of their TGL debut on Tuesday.
“My sport shouldn’t be excellent,” he mentioned.
The Los Angeles Golf Membership received by a rating of 12-to-1, marking the second straight week through which TGL noticed a blowout end result. Woods, as he mentioned, didn’t have his finest stuff. He airmailed a wedge on the second digital gap and located the water on one other. However he was not the one one who struggled. One might make related statements about his teammate Kevin Kisner, who created a viral second that will by no means be topped.
On the 14th gap, Kisner hit a cold-blooded shank from the bunker that rifled off the flagstick, leaving Woods doubled over and dying laughing. Max Homa couldn’t breathe both as Kisner’s shot made a loud smack off the flagstick. He then nearly holed the comebacker, which might have been an otherworldly par save.
“That was one of many funniest moments I’ve ever seen, Kis hitting that shot like that,” Woods mentioned.
“We have been simply dying.”
Sadly for Kisner, he had another low moments. He hit many pictures quick and proper, discovering the digital penalty space often.
“It’s only a bizarre sensation to face there, and also you’ve bought 100 yards, or one time I had 55 yards, and it’s simply that giant display screen you’re taking a look at, and it’s simply completely different,” Woods mentioned.
“We are able to study from that, and hopefully, in a few weeks, we won’t hit the ball into so many penalty areas, drop, and play higher.”
Woods’ staff should re-group in the event that they wish to contend in any TGL matches going ahead. They fared poorly of their debut, however at the very least they entertained golf followers far and large. Woods’ entrance tune drew loads of consideration, and so did Kisner all through. Kisner even supplied to modify locations with Charlie Woods, who made a hole-in-one on the PNC Championship final month.
No marvel why NBC Sports activities supplied Kisner their full-time analyst function. He’s hilarious and is aware of what to say and learn how to act to fulfill the second. He was the star of the present, though Collin Morikawa, Sahith Theegala, and Justin Rose of Los Angeles dominated his staff.
“[Woods] shouldn’t be going to be blissful about this. I do know he’s not going to be blissful about this,” Theegala mentioned.
“He’s going to be grinding his ass off to ensure this doesn’t occur once more. I can just about guarantee you that this received’t occur once more. They’re going to deliver it. However it’s good to have one, one little factor over Tiger. It’s very nice.”
