Tiger Woods didn't hold back when asked for his thoughts on the $85,000 wager placed on him to win the 2019 Masters, saying it was a "fucking great bet."
His answer amused the crowd at his charity event "Tiger Jam," which is held at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas.
The same bettor, who won over $1,000,000 after Woods’ triumph at Augusta, placed a $100,000 bet on Tiger to win the grand slam. The Masters champion didn't think that was a smart wager, especially after his missed cut at the PGA Championship.
"Dumbass was the grand slam part though," he added.
