The New Daily: Tiger Woods quits PGA tournament after the worst round of his career.
A hobbling Tiger Woods had withdrawn from the the US PGA Championship after a career-worst 79 in the third round at Tulsa’s Southern Hills course.
In obvious pain, Woods limped his way around in the cold and wind, at one point making five straight bogeys.
It was the first time Woods has withdrawn from a major as a professional.
He declined interviews after his round, speaking only to a pool reporter.
Woods was asked if he felt as though he would play the final round. All he said was he was sore, he would do some work and see how it went.
Woods has made the cut in the two majors he has played since his right leg was shattered in a car crash 15 months ago.
He must have a decent degree of chronic pain from the accidents he's been in, yet to a large degree rebounded back. I've always liked him and marvel at his golf game. He's been written off a couple of times in the past by "experts" who said he'll never play golf again.
He hasn't used up all Nine Lives of his career...at least I don't think so. Heal, practice and he'll be back.
