Tiger Woods shot an 80 in the opening round at the U. S. Open in 2015. It was recorded as his worst score to par in a major championship. Since the golf world considers him the greatest golfer of all time, all his fans and golf critics were disheartened to see a decline in his perfect career.
However, the infamous American columnist, Skip Bayless, was not afraid to criticize him. “It is a disgrace to me to see a man with this much talent, who dominated this sport like nobody will ever dominate it again, lose it this badly,” he said.

Notably, Woods couldn’t win a tournament, let alone a major title, in the 2015 season and the season before that. His injuries and multiple surgeries had led him to take constant breaks from the season and greatly affected his performance in the ones he attended. Furthermore, the only time he got into the Top 10 in 2015 was at the Wyndham Championship, where he finished with a T10 position on the leaderboard.
Skip Bayless has no sympathy for Tiger Woods
Infamous for being a longtime hater of the LA Lakers star player LeBron James, Bayless is known for making harsh comments on the sports entities. And he did the same with the legendary golfer also when his career took a turn.
“And what happened last night … with trains constantly passing by Chambers Bay golf course,” he added. “We saw the golfing train wreck that is Tiger Woods.”
