Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the Genesis Invitational golf tournament after he was carted off the course with symptoms of influenza. The 48-year-old pro golfer was taken to the locker room by a rules official at about 1:30 p.m. PT on Feb. 16. Emergency personnel later arrived at the Riviera Country Club course, according to the PGA Tour. Woods was treated inside the clubhouse for “potential dehydration and dizziness related to his illness” with an IV bag.
” Woods' manager Rob McNamara said the golfer experienced “flu-like symptoms” during the second round of the tournament, per NBC Sports. The Los Angeles tournament, which runs from Feb. 15-18, was Woods' first official PGA tour appearance since he withdrew from the 2023 Masters last April due to plantar fasciitis. A few weeks later, he had surgery for post-traumatic arthritis related to a previous injury from his 2021 car accident.
