Tiger Woods was already a legend, and here he goes cranking up that status even more.
Fifteen-time major champion Tiger Woods brought both his A-game and his shit-talking skills to the PGA‘s Genesis Open at the Riviera Country Club.
After opening up the tournament with a 2-under-69 Feb. 16, Woods slipped his playing partner Justin Thomas a tampon after outdriving him on the ninth hole. Woods and Thomas both smiled over the “gift” exchange, with Woods eventually leaning on Thomas’ shoulder in laughter.
“If anyone tries to cancel Tiger over this we riot. It’s funny,” golf influencer Paige Spiranac tweeted.

Tiger Woods is such a friggin’ G, man.
I’m just now starting to get into golf after years of resisting it (which I now regret), but when something involved Tiger Woods, he always had my full-out attention. I’ve heard for quite some time now that not only is Tiger golf’s greatest of all time, but he’s also a legendary shit-talker. But up until this point, I’d never seen it for myself.

And now that I’ve finally witnessed it?
Holy shit, dude. This man really is a legend.
