Bogey-free in Bahamas: Tiger Woods cards 6-under 66 Thursday at Hero World Challenge

Tiger Woods caught fire again on the back nine Thursday, rocketing up the leaderboard into contention at his event in the Bahamas.

Despite a blistering back nine stretch on Wednesday, Tiger Woods walked off the course at even par after the first round of the Hero World Challenge thanks to a disappointing final two holes.

On Thursday, the event’s five-time winner got his revenge. Woods made eight pars and one birdie on the front nine, then proceeded to get hot once again on the back nine.

Woods made eagle on No. 11 after a terrific drive and even better approach shot, followed by a birdie on the par 3 12th hole, par on No. 13 and yet another birdie on the driveable par 4 14th. That 4 under through four hole stretch propelled Woods to T-3, just two shots behind the leaders at that time.

Another par on No. 15 and a beauty of a birdie on the 16th kept Woods within three shots of leader Patrick Reed. He saved par with a testy five footer on 17 and made par on 18 to card a bogey-free 6-under 66. He walked off the course with the best round of the day, T-3 and four shots out of the lead.

Tiger Woods shoots up-and-down even 72 Wednesday at Hero World Challenge

Tiger Woods caught fire early on the back nine before falling off late in the opening round of the Hero World Challenge.

Tiger Woods’ return to the golf course following his record-tying 82nd PGA Tour victory in October didn’t quite go as planned early on Wednesday in the opening round of the Hero World Challenge.

Battling high winds and struggling to get any approach shots close despite having success off the tee with his driver, Woods made the turn at Albany Golf Club in the Bahamas at 2 over, near the back of the pack among the 18-man field.

Then, early on the back nine, he caught fire.

Woods made par on the 10th hole, then shot up the leaderboard on Nos. 11-15, making birdie on three of the four holes, culminating with a chip-in eagle.

Woods finished his last three holes par-bogey-double bogey to walk off the course with a disappointing even par 72. After the first round, Woods sits six shots back of leaders Gary Woodland and Patrick Reed.

Is Tiger Woods going to need a bigger boat?

Tiger Woods took his yacht “Privacy” to the Bahamas for the Hero World Challenge but it’s getting dwarfed by much bigger boats.

[jwplayer UxePaqhg-9JtFt04J]

Tiger Woods traveled by yacht to the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas this week.

Yes, that would be the $20-million luxury vessel dubbed Privacy.

Woods, who bought the boat (which is technically a correct term but it’s clearly so much more than that) in 2004, has taken it around the world, including the 2018 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills in New York.

Now, it’s parked in the Bahamas, which is not surprising.

What may be surprising is how this 6,500 sq.-ft. craft is dwarfed by other boats in dock. The one on the far left is Tiger’s:

The Golf Channel’s Dan Hicks quipped that it “might be time for Tiger to trade that in” when comparing Privacy to other absurdly large and much more expensive water craft.

Notah Begay, who’s long been friends with Tiger and admitted he’s been aboard Privacy, joked: “I’m from New Mexico. I don’t see many of these things.”

Big boat

Privacy sleeps between 10 and 12, has a crew of nine and reportedly costs $2 million a year to operate.

It includes:

  • Large deck bar
  • Eight-person Jacuzzi
  • Scuba-tank fill station
  • Inflatable decompression chamber
  • Cherry woodwork in the interior
  • VIP stateroom with two queen size cabin amidships and a twin cabin
  • Gym with a treadmill, exercise bike and free weights
  • Three-person elevator
  • Theater

Privacy has a 4,000-mile range thanks to a 12,000-gallon fuel tank, and can travel at a maximum speed of 17 knots.

Tiger Woods trolls Justin Thomas after one-upping him with monstrous drive

Woods outdrove the 26-year-old Thomas, then paused to inspect his ball, before confidently striding away.

The only thing better than the Big Cat being back is the Big Cat being back with a little swagger. 

Tiger Woods is paired up with Justin Thomas at the Hero World Championship in the Bahamas today, and after Thomas hit a huge drive during the round, Woods stepped up and smashed one that flew past his.

Thomas is 26 years old, and last year averaged over 300 yards per drive. He’s a big hitter. Woods is 44, but he’s the Big Cat, so it doesn’t matter.

Even better, Woods then walked over to Thomas’ ball on the fairway, and pretended to look down and inspect it to see if it was actually his ball. He then confidently strode away, because he’s Tiger Woods and he gets to do that.

BIG CAT SWAGGER.

What can Thomas do there? There’s nothing you can do. You applaud Woods, and maybe ask him to sign his can of Monster Energy Drink for you later.
