How Tiger Woods’ front tooth was knocked out
If you saw photos of Lindsey Vonn’s boyfriend, Tiger Woods from her World Cup triumph in Italy you likely noticed two things.
This fantastic skeleton mask.
And when the mask was removed, a greater horror still
Here’s the explanation for the missing pearly white, per Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg.
During a crush of photographers at the awards’ podium at the World Cup event in Italy, a media-member with a shoulder-mounted video camera pushed and surged toward the stage, turned and hit Woods in the mouth.
Adding another layer of intrigue: Deadspin suggests that the tooth that was knocked out was in fact a fake tooth, which Woods had been sporting since the events of Thanksgiving, 2009, which may have cost him the chomper.
A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.
As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.
Let’s get to the gifts.
Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo
We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.
STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover
If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.
Why Golf: Putting Thing
When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green. This also provides some competition for your kiddo to see who will unload the dishwasher or do the next chore around the house.
OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes
Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!
Therabody Theragun Relief
A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.
World Cup golf apparel
Something for the soccer dads. Embrace the World Cup fever this summer on the course with custom gear to support the nation of your choice.
FootJoy Pro SL spikeless golf shoes
Give the old man a break and save his feet with the Footjoy Pro SL Men’s Spikeless Golf Shoes for some added comfort on the course.
Bushnell Wingman 2 GPS speaker
Combine all the hits as well as some game improvement with the Wingman 2 Golf GPS Speaker by getting audible distance readings from 38,000+ courses worldwide through the Wingman 2 remote or speaker.
Personalized Titleist Pro V1 golf balls
The No. 1 ball in golf is a safe bet, and the Pro V1 fits the largest chunk of the bell curve if you don’t know what ball pops plays. Add personalization for a, well, personal touch!

With the PGA Tour across the border in Canada this week, GolfWRX Tour Photographer Greg Moore stayed stateside and headed to the OccuNet Classic presented by Amarillo National Bank in Amarillo, Texas.
It’s always interesting to see what the guys are playing on the KFT, and this week certainly hasn’t disappointed so far, with some incredible wedge stamping on display.

Read the headline, and go straight to the comments. Bigger news would be Tiger making a birdie, finishing a round under par, or finishing a tournament without an injury.
While I completely agree that ‘Weird things happen to people’, any time TW gets so much as an in-grown hair, he makes sure the cameras are on him and milks it for all it is worth. Tiger has never been an ‘oh by the way, I just got my face pummeled by a camera’ kind of guy. Just sayin’…

I’m sorry but what is with the “LOL” tag attached to this article? This is a Golf website. Not some trashy gossip rag run by Perez Hilton or TMZ. Lets try and by a little bit more serious.

What? No pictures of him covered in blood from having the tooth knocked out by a camera man? Good place to be (in the snow fields) when his pants are on fire!

Should def go with a gold tooth, or a pop in grill????
Yeah

So a camera knocked out his fake tooth that Elin BEAT out of his lying face? I wonder if Tiger will have a press conference to say the camera man was acting heroically when it happened. HAHA

Why is he walking around without his “fake tooth” anyway? Regardless of who knocked it out.

some people have to use pontic teeth, which is a place holder before an implant. Sometimes the bone isnt ready for an implant or the space isnt needed, a lot of celebrities have fake teeth that are are only attached by bonding them to the adj teeth.

He’s had a fake tooth for over 10 years, how is this “news.” Clearly evidenced by every image of him where one of his front teeth is noticeably whither than the other.

Your exactly right! Wait… Tiger and Elin are not together anymore? Again, nothing new!

“Deadspin suggests that the tooth that was knocked out was in fact a fake tooth, which Woods had been sporting since the events of Thanksgiving, 2009 may have cost him the chomper.”
First off, this sentence structure is just hot garbage. Secondly the content is way off. Deadspin showed pics going back to ’04 where there was evidence he was wearing the fake tooth, well before the Thanksgiving incident.

But what if his intent was to say that the actual year, 2009, was the culprit?
MG
Jan 20, 2015 at 9:06 am
That would be a perfectly fine claim to make, so long as he provides a source. The problem is he sourced Deadspin as the 2009 date in that sentence. It’s not good when you falsely interpret your source, even if you are a blogger (Don’t tell Jason though, he still mad lol).
