“I got a text from Tiger (Woods) this morning. We just talked about ‘Just keep fighting, no matter what happens’ and play boldly like Mr Palmer,” DeChambeau said in a televised interview.

Tiger Woods is currently recovering from serious leg and ankle injuries suffered in a car accident near Los Angeles, where his SUV crossed a median, went across two lanes of road, then hit a tree and landed on the driver’s side in the brush.
