Tiger Woods apologized privately to the U.S. Ryder Cup team's rookies after the Americans failed to hold a big lead according to Golf Channel contributor Tim Rosaforte.
Appearing on “Morning Drive,” Rosaforte revealed, “Brandt [Snedeker] shared with me (at his fundraiser in Memphis) that Tiger got all the rookies in a room, closed the door and personally apologized to everyone for not doing more, for not getting the points he needed to get to get a U.S. victory. For people who don’t think Woods really cares, whenever that turn or that pivot occurred in his career, it has fully turned.”
Europe retained the Ryder Cup, 14 ½ to 13 ½, after a miraculous comeback in Sunday singles. Woods was sent out in the 12th and final inconsequential match against Francesco Molinari after the Europeans had already clinched the Cup.
