In a truly bizarre turn of events, Tiger Woods handed Justin Thomas a tampon after outdriving him at the Genesis Invitational golf tournament on Thursday.

I put my driver up a click in loft at the start of the week. Speaking on his relationship with Thomas and McIlroy, Woods said: “It was a great round. Despite almost losing his leg in a life-threating car crash two years ago, the 47-year-old was hitting drives of more than 330 yards.

Tiger Woods is under scrutiny for handing Justin Thomas a tampon after outdriving him during the opening round of the Genesis Invitational on Thursday.

We are extremely close with the family and we do a lot of things together, and to be able to have that experience tomorrow again." Anna Caplice, Ireland rugby player, tweeted: "If the world generally respected women I would be able to see the funny side of this. "It's just a bit of fun, it's just banter on a golf course. Julie DiCaro, a lawyer and author, tweeted: "Ugh. So played out and stupid." "He's the leader of our game, whatever happens all eyes are on Tiger Woods. "I think he might want to (apologise) knowing what it's caused in the last 24 hours. "Us women all have periods, I know some men find it quite hard to say that out loud. "It can be seen as laddy behaviour but I just think what it says, the inference is not good. It was crass, it was disappointing and I think surprise from my side because he's playing in the Genesis on the PGA Tour. It was supposed to be a private incident but it's now been highlighted. A lot of people have jumped on this and, no wonder, because it's extremely disappointing and I'm surprised the most recognisable golfer on the planet has put himself in this position to be exposed in this way.

Really, Tiger? You're a 47-year-old 'girl dad' but thought tampon ... (USA TODAY)

Tiger Woods employed basic misogyny to insult his good friend Thursday, a knee-slapper of a dig against female athletes: You hit the ball like a girl!

Please tell me it’s not because he wants to send the message that Justin played like a girl. “I went to high school with some boys who did those kinds of things 35-40 years ago. I’ve played golf my whole life thanks to my father, but I know very few other women who do. The powers that be in golf, some of the greatest capitalists among us, chose sexism over capitalism. His daughter Sam, now 15, grew up playing soccer and had just played in a tournament in Florida when she arrived to watch him win the Masters in 2019. Or does he simply steal them out of the women’s locker room at country clubs when no one is looking?

That's not what we want to be showcasing in the world of sport." It was laddy, blokey behaviour - he's saying 'Look, I've outdriven you, you're driving the ball like a woman', effectively. Is it supposed to be funny because women supposedly can't hit a ball?"

Like Woods, Rory McIlroy also struggled on the greens, but he remained on course to take back the world number one ranking from Scottie Scheffler when he looked to the heavens after making a 15-footer for birdie at the last for a “pedestrian” two-under 69. It was not intended to be that way. It was just we play pranks on one another all the time and virally I think this did not come across that way, but between us it was, it’s different.”

It occurred as the Americans walked off the 9th tee after Woods had outdriven his countryman, who laughed and then dropped the tampon on the floor.

In 2021, Thomas was censured by the PGA and for using a homophobic slur during a tournament in Hawaii. I probably should have appreciated the fans more than I did, but there was so much going on in my head.” Of late Woods has made the headlines for reasons other than his prowess on golf courses. He followed it with a 74 in his second round on Friday to sit on one over par for the tournament – 10 shots adrift of early clubhouse leader Keith Mitchell. The 29-year-old Thomas, a former world No 1, has also had his run-ins with authority. Call me “offended”. The incident caused a disapproving backlash on social media.
