Tiger Woods started a bumpy ride towards his trail to the Masters. This was after Woods withdrew from the Honda Classic, reported the South China Morning Post. Woods was said to have been experiencing back pains caused by a lower back injury.
The exemplary golfer was already five over par for the last round. However, Woods shook hands with Luke Guthrie, saying he is calling the game off as the pain is getting worse. Woods withdrew from the game on the 13th green. The tournament sent a van to pick Woods along with his family. Police were sent to control the area and did not allow any media to get close.
According to Guthrie, "He just came over and said, 'I can't go anymore. It was a pleasure playing with you. I just said, 'Take it easy. Feel better.' Pretty uneventful."
Meanwhile, Russell Henley won the tournament over Rory Mcllroy who was in the lead of the game for three rounds.
