Woods dropped six shots ahead of the 14th hole and blamed it on the hectic year he had. He said, “I put everything I had into that start and didn’t have much at the end. I just ran out of gas. I’m tired. It has just been a long, long grind.”

Woods also showed concern about the sport’s return to the 2016 Olympics in Rio. He said that it would make matters even more hectic. The American Pro hit a tee shot into a water hazard and said, “My legs were just tired. I didn’t rotate through the ball and I turned it over.”

The multiple-time champion spoke up about the LIV Tour after golf legend Phil Mickelson joined it.

Woods also said that there is plenty of money in the PGA Tour as well. But one needs to earn it through his skill, like every athlete. He made this statement in context to the high amounts being offered in the Saudi-backed league.
