Tiger Woods advocated for golfers participating in the Ryder Cup on the United States team to receive $1 million apiece to donate to charities of their choice.

"No, the Ryder Cup itself makes so much money, why can't we allocate it to various charities?" Woods told reporters at the Hero World Challenge in Nassau, Bahamas on Tuesday, per Gabby Herzig of The Athletic.

"And what's wrong with each player, 12 players getting a million dollars and the ability to divvy out to amazing charities that they're involved in that they can help out? It's their hometowns, where they're from, all the different junior golf associations or endeavors that the members are involved in.
