OK, Tiger Woods is in this one. I checked. There's video evidence.

PGA TOUR

And it looks like Woods is in the featured groups on PGA Live coverage:

Tiger Woods was 16 when he made his PGA TOUR debut at Riviera Country Club in ’92. As he makes his 13th start at the Genesis this week, it remains the only tournament he has played 10 or more times without winning...

 

 

 

 

Ooaaff, you duffed it. No mercy.

Looking forward to seeing how much Tiger's game has gotten better in two weeks. 

But IIRC he never did well at Riviera.

Hahaha Mickelson did a classic Mickelson on 10 at the suspension of play.  Driver into bunker, then 3 bunker shots and makes par...

It's been quite fun watching hole 10 so far.  Bunker to bunkers, chunks, bad tee shots,  all over the board so far this morning.

Looks like they are going to reset the scores once they resume play? Doesn't seem right to me.

I see Sergio is in this one. Hope he likes the greens better than the ones in Dubai! Of course with all the rain, I doubt we'll have a repeat of the Payne Stewart situation!

So this is going terribly so far....

Even par through 9. Calm down. 😉

T46 ain't great. But hey, it's nine holes in.

Now -1 through 10. Oh, and that's the T46. My leaderboard was ahead of my TV for a bit there.

I know, I know lol!!! But he's infuriating sometimes with his speed control on his putts, why is he running it so far by? And then missing the 4 footers coming back?

I don't know.

All I know is that you joined this site in 2008. Fortunately, it was May. But since you've joined, Tiger Woods has had the worst 10-year stretch of his career. 😉

Maybe you should root against Tiger Woods… at least superficially. Reverse jinx or something.

He did it again at 12....it's rounds like today that explain my baldness....

I could never root against my man. The wife has made the same observation and tells me that I should just give up and stop watching

Or just only watch on replay. After the fact.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
