Tame Tiger ‘skinned’ by rivals in Thailand

TIGER WOODs returned to his mother’s home country for a four-man charity skins tournament yesterday and left soon after winning only one hole in another disappointing performance.

Colombian golfer Camillo Villegas won the most money at the World Golf Salutes King Bhumibol Skins Tournament at the Amata Springs Club in Chonburi province, taking five skins for €78,773. Paul Casey won nine skins for €66,290, and local golfer Thongchai Jaidee claimed three skins for €64,568.

Woods earned only €4,733 for his skin and left the country right after the event on his private jet to Melbourne, where he will defend his Australian Masters title starting Thursday.
