Tiger Woods’ food order on his PGA Tour return divides opinion

Tiger Woods is making headlines not just for his return to PGA Tour action at this week’s Genesis Invitational, but also for his choice of pre-game fuel. The 15-time major champion was spotted indulging in an In-N-Out burger at Riviera Country Club, where the tournament is being held.

A viral clip captured Woods receiving his order from the on-site In-N-Out stand, revealing his preference: sans pickles. This sparked a social media frenzy, with fans either applauding or criticizing his pickle-less burger choice.

Supporters of Team No Pickles rallied behind Woods, with one fan tweeting, “Tiger my man! Team no pickles!” Another chimed in, declaring, “Pickles are a delicious side and don’t belong on Hamburgers. Tiger got it right.” The sentiment was echoed by many, praising Woods for his taste buds’ alignment.

However, not everyone was on board with Woods’ anti-pickle stance. Some detractors went as far as suggesting that his rejection of pickles tarnished his status in the golfing world. One critic quipped, “Throwing pickles away solidifies Jack Nicklaus as the goat.” Another expressed disappointment, stating, “I’ve never lost more respect for Woods than finding out he trashed perfectly good pickles.”
