Tiger Woods' two NEAR ACES at The Genesis Invitational

by Golf Tweet



During the second round of The Genesis Invitational 2023, Tiger Woods hit two spectacular tee shots on the par-3 14th hole and the par-3 16th hole. On the 14th hole, Woods’s tee shot on the 187-yard hole stopped 10 inches short of the hole, while he hit his tee shot on the 164-yard 16th hole to 5 feet.

Tiger Woods will be make his first official start since The 150th Open last summer at St. Andrews and first non-major TOUR start since the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP in October 2020. The 82-time winner on the PGA TOUR will be joined by all of the top 30 players in the FedExCup standings, as well as 23 of the top 25 players in the world. These include No. 1 Scottie Scheffler who returned to the top of the Official World Golf Ranking after winning by two shots at last week’s WM Phoenix Open and Rory McIlroy, who finished T10 at last year’s event. Local favorite and 2021 winner Max Homa is in action once again, as is two-time winner of the event Adam Scott. Viktor Hovland will head to Riviera full of confidence, having finished inside the top 5 his last two outings. Similarly, John Ram will be hoping to continue his exceptional run of form that has seen him win twice already on the PGA TOUR in 2023 at the Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express.

Kevin February 17, 2023 - 7:22 pm

Tiger outdrove Rory a few times yesterday. Nuts

updownandeverywayaround February 17, 2023 - 7:24 pm

He is hitting the ball pretty good

Bradley Maddox February 17, 2023 - 7:25 pm

Those aren't near ace's…just great shots!!

Etc., February 17, 2023 - 7:27 pm

The gentleman looks great….so thrill to have him on the course. 🎉❤

Taylor Lucas February 17, 2023 - 7:38 pm

He's gotta be the best to strike an iron

ButchersRespawn don’t at me. February 17, 2023 - 7:40 pm

I thought Tiger was gonna go out and win this thing. Seems like he can’t catch a break.

Maurice湯 茂 林 February 17, 2023 - 7:40 pm

I think Tiger has a couple more major wins in him.

twyscape February 17, 2023 - 7:45 pm

The body maybe worn out but the gift/talent he has, still shines oh so brightly. 🌟

They call those near aces.. I guess looking back through my career, I had thousands of near aces then. What’s next PGA, are you going to be extremely annoying and start shouting “Get in the Hole” on everyone’s shot even if its 10-15 yards off line like all the Golf YouTubers to build up fake excitement that they will cut out of videos until that one day it actually goes in so they can then say “I called it”… Or are you going to somehow just talk about Tigers leg for 18 hours while you skip over showing the other pro’s playing (which the VAST majority of everyone would rather watch people ACTUALLY playing the tournament then hear announcers incoherently rambling on about their agendas/storylines).

Jaison Lee February 17, 2023 - 7:49 pm

If those are near Aces then I hit near aces all the time.

James Han February 17, 2023 - 7:59 pm

very rare to make three shots on the field on par threes in a round.

bepriceless February 17, 2023 - 8:00 pm

Wow, dudes on target.

alfredo espinoza February 17, 2023 - 8:01 pm

Bravo Tiger 👏👏

BAD GOLF HAWAII February 17, 2023 - 8:02 pm

Tiger hitting Darts!!

Cesar Avila February 17, 2023 - 8:09 pm

In my opinion some of the best and most relaxed his swing has ever looked

Kevin Mcnicoll February 17, 2023 - 8:20 pm

Think it's a bit far fetched to call the 2nd one a near ace

Tim R February 17, 2023 - 8:32 pm

i doubt he'd drive a genesis ever again

Jimmy Stanbery February 17, 2023 - 8:34 pm

His walk looks stiff and painful. Sad.

Eric Mandreger February 17, 2023 - 8:45 pm

Wouldn’t it be great to see him peak again and make a run?!

Benjamin Blakemore February 17, 2023 - 8:50 pm

WOOOWWW 😁 COMON TIGER BABY!!!!!!

Mattias February 17, 2023 - 8:56 pm

Near aces…🙄

FitwiseTV February 17, 2023 - 8:56 pm

What a comeback. Even if he doesn’t do anything else this is brilliant

I H February 17, 2023 - 8:58 pm

Tiger you just ruin my weekend. Sorry guys. I have no loyalty to any players other than tiger woods PGA/ LIV. The next best thing for me is to go watch Charles Barkley playing golf or PatPerez wide gloating that tiger will miss the cut. Bye for now , see you all at the next tiger appearance. Bona fa tuna

Christoph February 17, 2023 - 9:25 pm

Insane how he as the best ever only had three hole in ones

Jay King February 17, 2023 - 9:47 pm

Since when is 5 feet a near ace? 🤣

That one guy February 17, 2023 - 10:12 pm

Near aces might be a bit strong. Excellent to see from Tiger none the less

Lukas Mihara February 17, 2023 - 10:18 pm

Great shots! By the way, does anyone know what kind of trees those are on the 16th hole?

Paul Pattyn February 17, 2023 - 10:37 pm

This is what I want to watch not some guy named Mitchell.

B Murray February 17, 2023 - 10:37 pm

For once those boneheads who always yell “In the hole!!” may be right.

Mario February 17, 2023 - 11:02 pm

Clickbait next level. Both are great shots, but not even close to be called a near ace. 20 players hit such shots on the course every day, but Tiger is used by the PGA as clickbait. Wow really?

WhiteArtsMagic February 17, 2023 - 11:05 pm

Tiger will never be able to compete like he used to. Actually his wins might be done with on the PGA. But no one will ever have the same draw to the game as Tiger has had

Ivan Drago February 17, 2023 - 11:12 pm

Down 37 places today and the cut was moved to 2 over so he can make the weekend.
Next……..

Jack Saloman February 17, 2023 - 11:17 pm

LMAO, not gonna help him make the cut, but get on that tiger caouk

KTB Hackers Golf CT February 17, 2023 - 11:33 pm

And another missed cut. Wouldn't call that 2nd shot a "near ace" either. Nice clickbait though
