ORLANDO, Fla. -- Tiger Woods did his best again Friday to downplay expectations surrounding his return to golf, but even he can't help himself once in a while.
So it was that he flashed a bit of anger at a tee shot he hit off the toe on the ninth hole during the pro-am for the PNC Championship. The ball flight was less than pleasing, and Woods snatched his tee out of the ground in disgust.
Only to have his 12-year-old son, Charlie, mock him: "Nice shot."
Tiger fired that tee at Charlie's back, everyone laughed, and the round at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club continued with Woods remarkably even being in this position just less than 10 months following a horrific car crash that severely damaged his right leg and foot.
