Just a scare for Tiger Woods who had to withdraw from the tournament organized at the Riviera in Los Angeles. The American, and his fans, were hoping to see something different for his return to a Pga Tour tournament. The forty-eight-year-old withdrew from the Genesis Invitational due to fever that left him on the green for only 24 holes. At the second round of the tournament, at the sixth stage, the golfer was taken to the clubhouse with a cart and there he was treated with an IV, feeling immediately better.

Tiger Woods' condition

Reporting on the health status of Tiger Woods was Rob MacNamara, a long-time collaborator of the class of 1975: "He had a bit of a fever and was better during the warm-up. Then, however, when he went on the field and started to walk and play, he began to have dizziness. It wasn't a physical problem, his back is fine. The doctors said he was dehydrated. He was treated with an IV bag and is feeling much better".
