Tiger Woods Gets Septuple-Bogey 10.

Tiger Woods went from 3 under on the week to 4 over within a half-hour window Sunday morning after carding a 10 on the par-3 12th hole in the final round of the 2020 Masters.

Woods, the reigning Masters champion, found the water on three separate occasions — off the tee, from the drop zone and finally from the bunker — to post a septuple bogey, the worst score at a single hole in his professional career.

As such, Woods’ 10 at Rae’s Creek is clearly the highest score he’s ever logged on a hole at the Masters.

“I committed to the wrong wind. The wind was off the right for the first two guys, and when I stepped up there, it was howling off the left. I didn’t commit to the wind. I also got ahead of it and pushed it too because I thought it was coming off the left,” Woods said after the round.

But dropping from comfortably inside the red to squarely in the green, particularly in the final round after what has been on the whole a fine showing for Woods, makes what happened at No. 12 all the more difficult to swallow for the five-time Masters champion.
