Golf fans debate Tiger Woods’ dislike of pickles during PGA Tour return at Genesis Invitational.
Golf fans might not have a great deal in common with Tiger Woods but there is now something at least for many of us – a dislike of pickles.
Woods, 48, revealed his dislike for pickles when he was seen taking them out of his on-course lunch order ahead of the Genesis Invitational on Wednesday afternoon.
As we join the video, which has gone viral on social media, we see Woods carefully picking out two pickles and placing them in the bin.
Woods appears to squirm in the process.
A lady who was serving Woods can be heard saying: “Not a pickle guy, huh?”
Woods replies: “No I’m not. Thank you so much, appreciate it.”
After recovering from ankle surgery following the 2023 Masters, Woods is now participating in his first official PGA Tour event in 10 months. At the beginning of the week, he caught people’s attention by introducing his new company called Sun Day Red in partnership with TaylorMade.
The third Signature Event of the season will be the 2024 Genesis Invitational. A prize fund of $20 million is up for grabs, with an unprecedented $4 million being awarded to the champion. Even though the field is small, there will still be a mid-way elimination on Friday evening. As he seeks his 83rd PGA Tour victory, Woods is hoping to win at Riviera for the first time ever.
Currently, he holds the same record as the renowned Sam Snead with 82 victories.
This week’s event is being hosted by Woods.
