Tiger Woods’ withdrawal tops The Genesis Invitational Rd. 2 headlines | Golf Central | Golf Channel
https://www.youtube.com/golfchannel?sub_confirmation=1

Golf Central on YouTube is brought to you by the Paradigm AI smoke woods and irons from Callaway second round of the Genesis Invitational and we used to seeing tiger wordss being the headline but it wasn’t the story golf fans were hoping for he teed off in the parle 7th and looked

Incredibly uncomfortable out there at Riviera and shortly after it led to a sight that nobody wanted to see he got taken off the golf course mid round in a golf cart after officially withdrawing from the tournament the reason while it was a reported illness with flu like

Symptoms so let’s take a look at this statement from the EVP of tgr Ventures Rob magnam saying well he started feeling some flu like symptoms last night woke up this morning they were worse than the night previous he had a little bit of a fever and that and was

Better during the warm up but then when he got out there and was walking and playing he started feeling dizzy ultimately the doctors are saying he’s got some potentially some type of flu and that he was dehydrated he’s been treated with an IV bag and he’s doing

Much much better and he’ll be released on his own here soon not physical at all his back is fine it was all medical illness dehydration which is now the symptoms are reversing themselves now that he’s had an IV well let’s go out to Riviera Country Club because that is where we have had

Our team all afternoon with their eyes on the scene this afternoon watching it all unfold live you’ve got our reporter Kira k Dixon and Aaron obosa who was following Tiger’s group in coverage this afternoon guys good to see you just take us through what you saw and what you learned about tigers’s withdrawal

Today Yeah Anna both Aaron and I were down on the Range watching the warmup and Aaron you were also out with their group so o overall what were your takeaways from your observation of tiger today I I thought on the Range he looked just slightly more labored than he did

The day prior uh when he went and played he looked a little Freer the day before the swing looked okay today but I thought the movement was a little bit more deliberate was a little bit slow slower uh definitely a little bit more labored but I will say that when he got

To the first day I didn’t think anything of it I’m just thinking okay well you know he’s going to have to work into this it’s been a while since he’s played uh and then when I got out to his group at number four saw him hit a shot didn’t

Hit a very good shot on four made bogey on four then he got to the fifth T and this is where it kind of concerned me uh as we were waiting to they were waiting to come to us for t- shots he was he was literally bent over like this on like a

Stand on five and it he looked in a lot of discomfort what kind of discomfort I have no idea but he definitely looked in a in a in a tremendous amount of discomfort hit the t-shot hit the second shot played up six and then I saw uh PJ tour security just

Kind of rally around Tigers people and they were talking and Rich beam and I were out there following his group together we kind of well what’s this all about and rich is like I have no idea and that’s when he hit the t-shot and then immediately the cart came out uh

They picked him up and they took him in and I had no idea at that point they came down to me and I had no idea at that point why he was withdrawing but uh you know it’s never a good thing when you hop in a card as a player that’s

Usually means a wd yeah it’s certainly not a good sign I was actually standing up here uh by plager dining when I saw Tiger’s cart pull up he got off the cart and just marched straight into player dining and then there is this moment of question of what’s Happening next and a

Bunch of media members went to the far side of the clubhouse and at that point we saw two fire trucks and an ambulance pull up so then we’re thinking okay this is maybe getting it was you know very dramatic scary very scary you know something uh really bad happening U they

Had ended up pulling that ambulance all the way up to a side door and uh there was no movement for a while and they ended up bringing uh you know the device that you would put a somebody in gurnie there we go thank you for the word uh

Back into back into the ambulance without anybody on it um they they didn’t give any details as to why or who they were waiting for and then they they left um and it we went back to the side door where um the men’s locker room is

And tiger ended up walking out on his own got into his car with his caddy Lance Bennett Rob McNary was on his team and a security personnel and they drove away uh but it was certainly uh very concerning there for for a little bit but then we got the statement that you

Know he is in fact going to be okay that he had flu like symptoms was treated with the IV and seems like um things were going much better but just in terms of his game Aaron from what the limited things that you were able to see before

Things uh got to the point where describe them what were your takeaways overall I I thought I think his game is is going to be trending for where he is right now I think we all have to be realistic about where he is from a body standpoint um I think we need to

Understand that he’s only played you know one and not even one and a half tournaments uh since last since the beginning of last year and I think that we have to be realistic about where he is right now and not saying that he can’t do something on the PGA tour

Anymore cuz he certainly can what I saw he’s got still got plenty of speed it’s just a matter of can he get his his body to go a full 18 holes four days in a row and walk these golf courses and and be there when it counts and that that’s the

Biggest question mark and until I see full four full rounds out of tiger I I I I sit here and I have to wonder you know can he can he still win on the PGA tour well Aaron we appreciate your insights as always and uh best wishes to tiger for speedy

Recovery yeah interesting stuff so for more we welcome you into Studio where I’m pleased to be joined by PJ torvet and Brendan Duong and not the afternoon that we were expecting for Tiger Woods I don’t think we were all feeling pretty positive about the way that he was

Looking in his opening round reports were that he was a bit more tentative this morning sort of warming up but I think an illness the flu was not what we saw coming what’s your reaction well there’s not a golf fan out there andna that doesn’t hate seeing this you know

The anticipation about finally getting to see tiger play after this this lengthy layoff everybody was so fired up about it and then you know the the terrible news that he he could only make it through six holes hit his t- shot on seven and that was the end you know I I

Hat it for for Tiger I hat it for the sponsors I hat it for the tournament and again I hatte it for the fans yeah could you see his discomfort in the way that he was swinging the club in in the six holes that we did see he certainly

Wasn’t moving as freely as he was yesterday you could tell that everything looked a little bit labored um I was thinking that maybe that was just a little bit of fatigue he hasn’t played a lot of tournament golf but yes there certainly was a a little bit of a

Labored movement uh as opposed to yesterday yeah and as for when we’ll see him next you know we know that he’s hoping to play once a month that could mean that we next see him at the Players is this much of a blip do you think in

His trying to find momentum back in competition just getting those juices flowing again just recreating that competition atmosphere I don’t think so I think this is more of a frustration than anything else you know I’m sure tiger was as excited as anybody else to to play um I think this this will merely

Just be a little bit of frustration for him okay but we’ve still got Patrick cley it’s off the leader board he does lead by five we’ve still got some things to look forward to over the weekend there’s a lot to look forward to we get to watch a beautiful Golf Course an

Absolute Gem and a guy that’s on top of his game as you say Patrick Klay five shot lead and he’s been almost Flawless through two rounds okay good stuff so we won’t have Tiger Woods and in some quite sort of disappointing slightly shocking news we also won’t have Jordan SP uh

Heading into the weekend either he ultimately ended up being disqualified after his round today he signed for an incorrect scorecard the score card said three on four and he actually did make a four so uh spe unexpectedly will be packing his bags as well all right well let’s take a look at

The leader ball what we just mentioned you can see Patrick CLE with a commanding lead through 36 holes so far at the Genesis 13 under rounds of 6465 he was bogey free today Jason d also right up there in contention part of that three-way tie for second will

Alores how about that a hole in one for him today on the 14th and Tony F out as well good round for him today with a 67 so this is what is coming way on Saturday on Golf Channel it is the aramco Saudi ladies International at 5:30 then Brendan and myself will be

Getting you set at noon for third round coverage of the Genesis Invitational the chub classic is at 3 and then golf Central will be back to wrap up the day at 700 p.m. Eastern so we hope you have enjoyed all the golf so far and we hope

To see more of tiger as he hosts the Genesis Invitational over the Weekend For
