Tiger Woods had perfect response after run-in with security at The Open

Tiger Woods has missed the cut for the final two days at The Open but one golfer has shared a story from when the 15-time major winner was at the peak of his powersGolf legend Tiger Woods once left security at The Open completely red-faced after they refused to let him in at Royal Troon.The four-time winner of the claret jug has since fallen on tougher times and is not in the running to win it this year after missing the cut. Woods produced a six-over-par round on day two to finish on 14-over-par, eight shots above the cut line.The Open has not been kind to Woods in recent years, being cut in four of his last five appearances at the major since 2015, though he did tie for sixth in 2018.That is a stark contrast to the 48-year-old’s peak years. Between 1998 and 2006, Woods won The Open four times and only missed out on the top 10 twice. However, that did not prevent the 15-time major winner from having a startling interaction with a security guard around the height of his fame.Tiger Woods’ stance on playing at next year’s Open after confirming lengthy breakRory McIlroy left with egg on his face after Open prediction falls flatPGA golfer Michael Kim recalled the incident on X earlier this week, a few days before The Open at Royal Troon got underway. “At the Open Championship, players get a clip as credentials to get you into the locker room and everywhere else,” Kim explained.“Mid 2000s, Tiger forgot his clip one day, and he was walking into the locker room when the security person stopped him asking for his credentials. Tiger looks around, sees a massive billboard with his name and face on it, points to it, says, ‘That’s my credentials’ and walked into the locker room.”That will all seem a far cry to Woods, who has been forced to dismiss suggestions that he should retire. Despite missing the cut, Woods remained optimistic for the future when discussing his second round in Scotland.”It wasn’t very good,” Woods admitted. “I made a double there at two and I was just fighting it all day. I never really hit it close enough to hit birdies and I made a lot of bogeys.
