PGA Tour: Tiger Woods Withdraws from Genesis Invitational

Tiger Woods will not be teeing it up at this week’s Genesis Invitational. The 15-time major champion made the decision to withdraw, citing the recent passing of his mother, Kultida Woods, who died last week. His anticipated return to official PGA Tour competition at Torrey Pines—his first since the 2024 Open Championship—will have to wait.

“I’m Just Not Ready”

Woods had signaled his intent to return to the PGA Tour at the Genesis Invitational, marking a significant step in his comeback following his latest back surgery. The 48-year-old, who had spent much of the past year recovering, had gradually reintroduced himself to competition through select exhibition events late last year.

However, the emotional toll of his mother’s passing proved too much. Three days after confirming his participation, Woods reversed course, explaining that he simply isn’t ready to compete.

“I planned to tee it up this week, but I’m just not ready,” Woods said in a statement on X. “I did my best to prepare, knowing it’s what my Mom would have wanted, but I’m still processing her loss.”

A Tribute to Kultida Woods

Throughout his career, Woods has often credited his mother for her unwavering support. Kultida Woods was a fixture at many of his most significant triumphs, a quiet but resolute presence in the background. Her influence was profound, and Woods has frequently described her as his “biggest fan and greatest supporter.”

“It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away early this morning,” Woods wrote in a statement. “My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable. She was quick with the needle and a laugh. She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible. She was loved by so many, but especially by her two grandchildren, Sam and Charlie.”

The Wait for Woods’ Return Continues

The Genesis Invitational was expected to mark Woods’ first official PGA Tour start since the 2024 Open Championship. After undergoing yet another back surgery in September, Woods had made only limited appearances, notably alongside his son Charlie at the PNC Championship in December. His participation at Torrey Pines was eagerly anticipated, with fans and tournament organizers alike hopeful for a competitive return.

Woods’ health has been a persistent storyline in recent years, including last year’s Genesis Invitational, where he withdrew during the second round due to illness. This year, with the tournament relocated from Riviera Country Club to Torrey Pines due to California wildfires, Woods would have been returning to one of his most iconic venues—the site of his legendary 2008 U.S. Open victory on a broken leg. However, for now, golf takes a backseat.

A New Opportunity in the Field

With Woods’ withdrawal, his spot in the Genesis Invitational field will be filled by Jake Knapp, who now has an unexpected chance to compete at Torrey Pines. Meanwhile, Woods has expressed hope that he may still make an appearance at the event later in the week, albeit in a non-playing capacity.

Mourning in the Woods household: Mother Tida passes away at the age of 80

At the age of 80, the mother of golf legend Tiger Woods passed away on Tuesday, February 4. The world star made the announcement in a statement via his social media channels. Born in Thailand, she was an important pillar for Woods and is also said to have been the origin of the legendary “Sunday-Red” shirt. Most recently, she attended the TGL match in her adopted home of South Florida last week.

Touching statement from Tiger Woods

“It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away early this morning. My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable. She was quick with the needle and a laugh,” Woods said in a social media statement. “She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible. She was loved by so many,  but especially by her two grandchildren, Sam and Charlie. Thank you all for your support, prayers and privacy at this difficult time for me and my family. Love you Mom.”

Tida, as she was often called, is said to have been a major influence on Tiger’s career. She always demanded respect and sporting behavior from him. “ She’s a very tough, tough old lady, very demanding… I love her so much, but she was tough,” Tiger said about his mother in an interview with USA Today in 2017. She was also the driving force behind Tiger’s red shirts on finals days. “Mom thought being a Capricorn that my power color was red, so I wore red as a junior golfer and I won some tournaments,” Tiger Woods said at the launch last year of the Sun Day Red brand. “I go to a university that is red — Stanford is red. We wore red on the final day of every single tournament, and then every single tournament I’ve played as a professional I’ve worn red. It’s just become synonymous with me.”

Kultida met Earl Woods in the 1960s during the Vietnam War as a soldier in the US Army when they were both stationed in Thailand. Tida followed Earl to New York, where they married. They moved to California and in 1975 Eldrick Tont Woods, who would later make golf history as Tiger, was born. Her husband Earl died in May 2006.

TGL holds a minute’s silence for Tida

Tiger’s mother was also remembered at yesterday’s TGL event. Just a few hours after the news broke, fans and golf stars held a moment of silence for Tida at the SoFi Center. Afterwards, ESPN TGL presenter Matt Barrie addressed the audience: “Sad news today in the golf world as everyone here at TGL, TMRW Sports and ESPN is remembering Tida Woods, the mother of Tiger Woods, who died this morning at the age of 80. Tida was a towering figure in Tiger’s life, someone he described as ‘a force of nature all her own.’ Prior to the match tonight here at SoFi Center, we held a moment of silence honoring Tida Woods, who was so instrumental in Tiger’s life and his success. Throughout his amateur career as a young phenom in California and through his major championships and even here at TGL, the very league her son co-founded, she was here to support him. Last week, in fact, last Monday, Tida was ever present here at SoFi Center, cheering on Tiger, who got the win. Our thoughts and prayers with Tiger, Charlie and Sam and everyone for the loss of Tida Woods. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.”

Co-host Scott Van Pelt also had his say and shared a little insight into his encounter with Tida on the golf course. “Getting to know her was such a treat,” Van Pelt said. “We developed a little tradition through the years, on Sundays of majors. I’d see her, as her son teed off — she was in red, always, of course — and she’d ask me, ‘What do you think, Scott?’

“I’d say, ‘Well, Tida, I think your saw is going to do what you taught him to do.’ She’d always smile and say, ‘We’ll see.’ And then we did.”

TGL: Complex Set of Rules Including a Hammer as a Penalty for the Indoor Spectacle

(Photo: Instagram/@tglgolf)
(Photo: Instagram/@tglgolf)

Be warned, this is a bold theory: golf needs to be rethought here and there – at least in terms of competition formats. Even the game, which is ageless in its magnificence and unshakeable in its foundations, needs the fresh cell treatment of innovation from time to time. It’s not really that bold an idea, is it?

It needs spectacle

Of course, there is plenty of room for argument about how. But one thing is certain: the leisure society 4.0 can hardly be won over by tedious counting game competitions over four days, unless they have the aura of a major’s speciality or other significance. The fun-focussed modern man flutters from experience to experience: a little thrill here, a little amusement there, a little action there.

Applied to sport, this means: it takes sweat, tears, toil, duels eye for eye, ruckus, lots of smoke and thunder – even for nothing. In short: it needs spectacle. This doesn’t have to be detrimental to the seriousness of the competition, see American football or the new biathlon season starting at the end of November.

New era in Golf

A few weeks later, on 7 January, a new era begins in golf too, so to speak. The starting signal will be given for the competition of tomorrow, which its creators have appropriately christened Tomorrow’s Golf League. With the competition offshoot of their joint venture TMRW Sports, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are taking the future of the game into their own hands.

The two superstars and their team-mate Mike McCarley are following the trend towards gamification of golf, which is enjoying success up and down the country, manifested by the opening of more and more indoor facilities and the constant upgrading of driving ranges with analysis systems, and are also raising the game in the elite sector to the level of modern entertainment. They call the spectacle under the roof of the hall ‘golf remixed’. You could also say: golf goes south curve. That fits the spirit of the times more than ever.

‘Bringing the game into the 21st century’

The TGL match days between ScreenZone and GreenZone will be high-tech events with coliseum character, target shooting, light and show effects like in the NBA, the National Basketball Association. With hype and a grandstand atmosphere like at the Phoenix Open in Scottsdale on 16, the party hole. With tailgating like in American football around the NFL stadiums. A circus, and in the middle of it all, the Triple-A PGA Tour staff wired up as gladiators.

‘We’re trying to break with tradition and bring the game into the 21st century,’ says Rory McIlroy, who points out that more golf was played in simulators than on real courses in 2023. ‘It’s a completely different type of golf; not the traditional sport you see week in, week out.’

‘Everything is even bigger than expected’

The key spatial data has already been presented here, and it is impressive enough: the oversized simulator screen, the specially designed golf courses, the short game area with the green, whose slopes and breaks can be adjusted under the surface using electric motors, the technology surrounding it with huge monitors for the 1,600 spectators in the stands, with treadmills for results, stroke analysis data and scores, etc. ‘Everything is even bigger than I expected. That makes it even better,’ enthused Justin Thomas, for example.

Overloaded regulations?

So far, so exciting and promising. However, there seems to be one catch: the rules. To put it mildly, it is complex. It could, if you like, be too complicated. Sport as a spectacle thrives not least on the transparency of the result, finish or goal lines, clocks that run with the game or the constantly updated score. Winners and losers must be very easy to identify; no one wants an outcome that is only determined after painstaking arithmetic. In the case of the TGL with its ‘Modern Matchplay’ format, this seems overloaded at first glance; the following is an attempt to sort things out:

Every hole is worth a point – most of the time

Three of the four players from the two teams in question compete in each match of the 15 match days of the season. The format is based on awarding points per hole played. The team with the fewest strokes on a hole wins a point. A draw is awarded zero points.

Within a match, two sessions are played in two different formats:

Triples: Nine holes of three against three in alternate shot format. Everyone plays their own ball and the best score per hole is scored for the team.

Singles: Six holes man against man; each player in the team plays two holes.

In the event of a tie, ‘Nearest to the Pin’ as overtime

In the event of a tie at the end of the regular playing time, ‘Nearest to the Pin’ is played in overtime until one team has been closer to the pin twice than the competition.

For each match won, regardless of whether in regular time or in overtime, the team in question receives two points for the overall ranking. If a team only loses in overtime, it still receives one point. The four best teams qualify for the play-offs with semi-finals (17 and 18 March 2025) and final (24 and 25 March).

40 seconds for each stroke

There are also a few special features. For example, there is a shot clock: each player must take their upcoming shot within 40 seconds, the time is monitored by a referee who imposes a penalty if the time is exceeded. On the other hand, each team has four timeouts per match, two for each session, to stop the shot clock.

And then there’s the hammer. Whoever swings it doubles the value of a hole won. It doesn’t take much imagination to visualise the bang that will be created at the SoFi Centre on the campus of Palm Beach State College. The question remains as to what happens if a team doesn’t live up to the hammer it has brought into play. The first match day at the latest will shed light on this and show whether this set of rules does not turn out to be a malus for the spectacle.

Koepka’s Investment in Woods’ and McIlroy’s TMRW Sports Fuels Speculation

Brooks Koepka has made a remarkable investment. The five-time major winner acquired shares in an investment fund called Locker Room, which also holds shares in TMRW Sports through its portfolio. The company owned by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, for example, is the parent company of TGL, which is finally launching its indoor golf spectacle in January. ‘Locker Room offers me the opportunity to actively support companies that are really close to my heart and align with my personal interests and values,’ says Koepka about his commitment, which puts him in good company. ‘Big names’ such as Lewis Hamilton, Gareth Bale, Steph Curry, Justin Timberlake and sports magnates Arthur Blank and John Henry have been investors from the very beginning.

And of course, with this very indirect approach to LIV opponent Woods, rumours of a return to the PGA Tour by Koepka, who is nominally one of the stars of the LIV Golf League, will be competing with Bryson DeChambeau in Las Vegas in December for the ‘showdown’ between the two rival circuits against Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy and has already started teasing his designated team partner and former favourite enemy. Seen in this light, it is safe to speak of a double speculation model.

Bradley Becomes the Youngest Captain Since Arnold Palmer

Bradley was already a contender for the captaincy of the US team in 2023, but was ultimately not selected. Less than a year later, he has now been named captain of the team for the 2025 Ryder Cup. At 38, he is the youngest Ryder Cup captain since Arnold Palmer in 1963. The two-time Ryder Cup participant played college golf at St. John’s University in Queens, just a short drive from Bethpage, and regularly competed in tournaments there. “I am incredibly honored to be given this opportunity to lead the U.S. team in the 2025 Ryder Cup,” Bradley said in a statement. “My passion and appreciation for golf’s greatest team event have never been stronger. The Ryder Cup is unlike any other competition in our sport, and this edition will undoubtedly be particulary special given the rich history and enthusiastic spectators at this iconic course. I look forward to starting preparations for 2025.”

Tiger Woods turned down captaincy for the 2025 Ryder Cup

Tiger Woods, who had previously been considered the favorite for the role of captain, had to pull out due to his duties as Player Director on the PGA Tour Policy Board. The PGA of America delayed the appointment of a captain for months, hoping to clear the way for Woods to become captain, and even appointed former caddie and NBC Sports analyst John Wood as “team manager”. He was supposed to take on some of the captain’s workload. When still no major progress had been made in early July, Woods was forced to turn down the captaincy. However, he could still theoretically take part in the Ryder Cup as a player or vice-captain.

Against All Odds: Woods and Timberlake Get Their Bar in St Andrews

“Slàinte mhath”, says the Scotsman, when toasting with good wishes: In St Andrews, the Home of Golf, there will soon be a new meeting place for this. Despite massive opposition from local residents, who even submitted a petition against the project, superstars Tiger Woods and Justin Timberlake have been given the green light by the relevant authorities for their sports bar T-Squared Social. The branch of the pub chain is to be built in the “Auld Grey Toon” cinema: The New Picture House has been in existence since 1930, but has been operating at no more than ten per cent capacity for years and can barely exist independently, according to the current owner.


Nevertheless, the residents are attached to their old film theatre and do not want any newfangled stuff; over 10,000 people signed the petition against the project. The luxury bar in the historic building, less than a kilometre from the Old Course, is to be equipped with large screens and golf simulators, have a bowling and darts alley and create 40 to 45 new jobs. This is the promise of the new operator Nexus Luxury Collection, whose shareholders include the two superstars. The remodelling for T-Squared Social is expected to begin within the next three years; the branch in New York, for example, is doing very well.

PGA Tour Introduces Special Exemption for Tiger Woods

The PGA Tour has announced the creation of a special sponsor exemption specifically for Tiger Woods, acknowledging his “exceptional lifetime achievement.” This exemption will allow Woods to participate in the eight prestigious signature events, featuring limited fields, substantial prize money, and significant FedEx Cup points. The decision was communicated to tour members in a memo on Tuesday night.

A Special Category for Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods, a 15-time major champion and winner of 82 PGA Tour events, has faced significant challenges in recent years, particularly following severe injuries from a car accident in February 2021. Despite these setbacks, Woods’ influence and contributions to the sport remain unparalleled. Recognizing this, the PGA Tour policy board approved the special exemption during a joint meeting with the PGA Tour Enterprises board of directors in Hartford, Connecticut. “An additional sponsor exemption will be created to recognize Tiger Woods in his own category as a player who has reached an exceptional lifetime achievement threshold of 80+ career wins,” the tour’s memo stated.

The exemption grants Woods the opportunity to compete in the season’s eight signature events, which include The Sentry, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, RBC Heritage, Wells Fargo Championship, Memorial Tournament, and the Travelers Championship. Normally, Woods would not qualify for these events due to his limited participation in recent seasons. The policy board is also considering the implementation of a 36-hole cut for these signature events, a feature currently present only in the Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, and the Memorial Tournament. The tour said it would also develop an alternate list that would ensure that each of the signature events had a field of 72 players. The Travelers Championship has only 71 players after Rory McIlroy withdrew Monday.

US Open 2024 – Tiger Woods: ” It’s Just So Hard To Get Back”

In the first round of the US Open 2024, Tiger Woods faced a challenging day on the course, struggling to capitalize on his strong driving game. Despite hitting his drives with consistent accuracy, Woods found himself grappling with his iron play and putting, leading to a round that left him with much to improve on. Although Tiger was able to start his round with a birdie, the problems began at the end of the first half of the course. One bogey after another landed on Woods’ scorecard. After 18 holes, the 15-time major champion is on four over par and will have to fight for the cut on Friday.

Tiger Woods struggles on the first day of the US Open 2024

THE MODERATOR: Tiger, give us an opening statement about your round today.

TIGER WOODS: Well, I didn’t hit my irons particularly well. Didn’t putt that great. Drove it on the string all day. Unfortunately I just didn’t capitalize on it.

Q. Tiger, the greens here are pretty nuance. Sometimes you have to play away. Was it more you being conservative with your approach shots or were you not hitting them in the spots you wanted to?

TIGER WOODS: Both. I was somewhat conservative in some of my end points. Then again, I didn’t hit the ball very well either. It added upped to quite a bit of distance away from the flag.

It’s not where I wanted to be on a lot of the holes. It just ended up being that far away because I wasn’t as sharp as I needed to be.

Q. Different setup than a usual U.S. Open. There’s no rough. Native areas. Do you like that kind of test as opposed to what we’re used to seeing?

TIGER WOODS: Well, depends on the golf course. This golf course is all about the greens. The complexes are just so difficult and so severe that, I mean, I think 1-under par is only in fifth. There aren’t that many scores that are low.

It’s hard to get the ball close. In most golf courses you play, you hit shots into where it’s feeding off of slopes into flags, whereas collecting. Here everything is repelling. It’s just hard to get the ball on top of the shelves.

You know if you miss it short side, it’s an auto bogey or higher. Being aggressive to a conservative line is I think how you need to play this particular golf course.

Follow the US Open 2024 on the live blog

Q. You’ve spoken a few times this year about trying to increase your overall number of holes played and shots taken. Do you feel like your game is accumulating as the year goes on or something more a week-to-week basis?

TIGER WOODS: I’m physically getting better as the year has gone on. I just haven’t been able to play as much because I just don’t want to hurt myself pre, then I won’t be able to play in the major championships.

It’s pick your poison, right? Play a lot with the potential of not playing, or not playing and fight being not as sharp.

Q. Tiger, similar note. Physically you got time now before tomorrow.

TIGER WOODS: Yeah.

Q. What can you do between now and then to make some adjustments and what are you going to be able to do?

TIGER WOODS: Well, I’m hoping I don’t get too tight in the car ride back, that maybe I can hit a few. I can get tight in air-conditioning. Get back there, there’s usually no point.

I’d like to hit a few putts. My speed was not quite there. I think I 3-putted, what, two or three times today. If I clean that up, if I get a couple iron shots not as loose as I did, I’m right there at even par.

It can go so far the other way here, the wrong way. It’s just so hard to get back. This is a golf course that doesn’t give up a whole lot of birdies. It gives up a lot of bogeys and higher.

I thought I did the one thing I needed to do today, which is drive the ball well. I did that, I just didn’t capitalize on any of it.

Q. Felt like you were hitting your irons good coming in, practice days?

TIGER WOODS: They were okay. It wasn’t as good as I’d like. I was pretty one-dimensional early in the week, which is interesting. I was drawing the ball a lot. Now I’m cutting the ball a lot. Welcome to golf (smiling).

Q. Is there anything about the course conditions today that surprised you?

TIGER WOODS: No. The greens are right where they want ’em. A lot of the pins were right up on the crest of the green. A lot of the pins were — if you dumped the ball in the middle of the green, it was into the grain then downgrain, into the grain and then downgrain. That’s how the golf course is going to be set up. We know that going in here. Just a matter of putting the ball in correct spots and just making a bunch of pars and occasionally a birdie here and there, it can be done.

THE MODERATOR: Thank you.

TIGER WOODS: Thank you.

With the tournament set to take place at Pinehurst No.2, a venue rich in history and challenges, it’s an opportune moment to review Tiger Woods’ performances in the US Open over the past few years.

Despite experiencing numerous injuries and surgeries, Tiger Woods has shown remarkable resilience and determination in recent times. His performances in the US Open have been mixed, reflecting both his extraordinary talent and the physical challenges he has faced. In 2019, Woods finished tied for 21st at Pebble Beach, a venue where he had previously won in 2000. The subsequent years have seen varied results, with Woods missing the cut in 2020 at Winged Foot and struggling in 2021 as he continued to recover from a car accident that severely impacted his mobility and performance.

Tiger Woods’ US Open Performances: A Detailed Look

The US Open Golf is one of the most challenging tournaments in professional golf, known for its difficult courses and demanding conditions.

2020 saw the US Open hosted at Winged Foot, a notoriously difficult venue. Unfortunately, Tiger Woods struggled with the course’s conditions and missed the cut.
