Jersey City : Tiger Woods, surveying the social divides of the United States that spilled into the sports landscape this week, voiced a hope on Wednesday that “things can be healed”.
The 14-time major golf champion – battling back from a fourth back surgery this year in hopes of resurrecting his competitive career – is serving this week as an assistant to US captain Steve Stricker at the Presidents Cup.
Stricker said on Tuesday that his team had opted against any sort of national anthem demonstration of the kind launched in the National Football League (NFL)and harshly criticised by US President Donald Trump.
As players, coaches and even some owners across the league responded to Trump’s barbs with shows of solidarity, Woods was asked what he made of the demonstrations.
