Tiger Woods’ TGL debut resulted in a lopsided loss, but the 15-time major still appeared to be having the time of his life. Kevin Kisner helped with both.
The 40-year-old part-time announcer was Jupiter Golf Links’ clear weak link all night, hitting multiple shots into (simulator) penalty areas on Tuesday night at the SoFi Center. It was a crazy sequence around the green that wound up being the most memorable moment of the match. By far.

Kisner found a bunker off the tee, then nearly found the fan-filled stands when he skulled one from the sand. Instead, the ball caromed hard off the flagstick and wound up in the rough on the other side. That had his Jupiter teammates Tiger and Max Homa—along with all of Los Angeles Golf Club—in stitches. But then things got even better.
Kisner lipped out the ensuing chip and the scene was too much for Tiger to handle. Have a look at the entire series of events:

It’s hard to recall seeing Tiger Woods ever laugh that hard. The dude was actually in tears.
In this case, a 12-1 result literally turned into a laugher. Even for the team getting crushed.
