Tiger Woods has spent his entire weekend at the Hero World Championship trolling fellow Presidents Cup team member Justin Thomas, and he saved the best prank for Saturday’s final round.
Woods and Thomas have been paired together in three of the tournament’s four rounds. On Wednesday, Woods made a show of outdriving the 26-year-old star, stopping to inspect the ball before he swaggered ahead to his own monstrous drive. In the third round, Woods received a glorious introduction on the first tee, while his playing partner’s accolades were ignored and he was introduced as “Justin Thomas.”
On Sunday, however, the announcer on the first tee went through an exhaustive list of Thomas’ accomplishments, even making sure to inform the crowd that Thomas as Mr. Golf in the state of Kentucky in 2009. Thomas thought the whole thing was hilarious.
