Tiger Woods shows true colours after pausing his final Masters round to make gesture
Despite battling against an ardous final round, Tiger Woods took a moment to honour a legend before the 2024 Masters tournament ended at Augusta.
Verne Lundquist, the 83 year old CBS broadcaster, was present for his final time calling the Masters at Augusta National, and Woods made it a point to break from his play and acknowledge him while sitting on the 16th hole.
Lundquist is renowned for commentating some of Woods’ most memorable professional golfing moments, including Woods’ iconic chip shot during the 2005 Masters’ 16th hole, which led to him securing his fourth Masters title.
“He has an amazing ability to bring in the audience and describe a situation and be able to narrate it in a way that’s poetic,” Woods said of Lundquist.
“He just draws the audience in … that’s what I grew up watching, I grew up listening to Verne.”
Unfortunately, Woods’ performance at the 2024 Masters was far from his past glories.
