Tiger woods : Live Updates Every Minute from 25K+ News Agencies Across the Globe

Tiger Woods was unable to compete in the 2021 Masters Tournament after a car accident left him sidelined, but one sportsbook has posted odds on his chances in 2022.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — The roars returned to Masters. At least two of them.
There were enough spectators, believed to be roughly 8,000 a day, to at least bring some sound back to the gorgeous scenery of Augusta National in April. And they stood six-deep over the final 100 yards of the 18th green — masks on — as Hideki Matsuyama walked up the hill to a one-shot victory.
Missing was that head-turning volume, a brief burst of cheers that made spectators look around and try to figure out where it came from and what they were missing.
One of those roars was for Tommy Fleetwood making a hole-in-one on the 16th hole in the opening round. The loudest of the week was for Corey Conners making his ace on the sixth hole Saturday.

Cerritos resident and Cerritos High junior Joshua Koo lit up the Toyota Tour Golf Cup at Palm Desert Resort and Country Club shooting a 10-under par 62 to win the tournament by six strokes at 13-under.
Koo made eight birdies, one eagle and no bogies, and sunk his longest putt of 38-feet.
This was not a walk in the park for Koo and others, the Palm Desert Resort course is over 6,500 yards and the tees were set up at maximum length, what is called “at the tips.”
Koo told the LA Times, “I hadn’t been hitting that well recently and was working on my putting,” he said Tuesday by phone while taking a break from online classes. “That day everything clicked. Shots would go within 15 feet and I’d make the putt. It was a really fun round. I was struggling with mostly putting. It was a relief my putting was so good that day.”

The return of a springtime Masters tournament brought more television viewers than last November, but ratings were down from previous April events.
The final day of the tournament at Augusta National averaged 9.45 million viewers and a 5.5 household rating, according to Nielsen live-plus-same-day ratings. That was the highest TV audience for a golf tournament since 2019, when Tiger Woods captured his fifth Masters title.
The results proved to be much better than last November, when a late-autumn Masters netted an average final-day audience of 5.59 million viewers and a household rating of 3.4. However, the 2021 ratings were the lowest for a regularly scheduled Masters tourney in the modern Nielsen ratings era.

Matsuyama targets Olympic title after Masters win
Wed 14th April 2021 | 05:30 PM
Tokyo, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th Apr, 2021 ) :Newly minted Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama set his sights on TokyoOlympicsgold on Wednesday after returning to Japan clutching his victor's green jacket in triumph.
Matsuyama spoke to reporters online from quarantine having returned to his home country the previous day, after becoming the first Japanese man to win a major.
A calm but tired-looking Matsuyama -- wearing his green jacket -- told reporters he "doesn't want to pick up a club" while he enjoys his victory.
But the 29-year-old is eyeing more major titles -- and Olympicgold on home soil -- in the months and years to come, and hopes he can inspire a new generation of Japanese golfers.

You would think this would be a eye-catching story: A Black Live Matter co-founder – supposedly a Marxist -- goes on a home buying binge, spending $3.2 million to purchase four houses in places like wealthy Malibu and the Bahamas.

The head of Black Lives Matter's New York City chapter is calling for an investigation into BLM's co-founder over a series of real estate purchases...

After a Memorable Masters, We Revisit Rush Talking with Jim Nantz
Apr 12, 2021
JASON: Isn’t it great that the Masters golf tournament — if you’re a golfer like Rush was and I am — stood up to this nonsense and said (summarized), “We’re not gonna follow Major League Baseball. We actually have a spine! We’re not gonna do what you did.” I mean, to move the Masters obviously was just a tad counterintuitive, given that it’s the Masters because it’s in Augusta.
RUSH: Jim, welcome to the EIB Network for the first time. It’s really great to have you here.

A prominent black sports journalist barred from Twitter for the 'crime' of discussing the $1.4 million house bought by a Black Lives Matter co-founder slammed the company for trying to silence legitimate debate. 
Jason Whitlock, 53, told DailyMail.com on Monday that Twitter was 'going too far' by blocking him from posting to his account, which has nearly 450,000 followers.
The censorship by Twitter comes as social media companies, including Twitter and Facebook, have increasingly 'de-platformed' figures who stray too far from opinions they consider acceptable.
