The 2020 PGA Championship winner snapped a wide smile as he was asked to assess that achievement in a post-career interview. The 24-year-old praised Tiger and then became emotional.
“Tiger means everything to me,” he said. “And yes, he was in an accident and thankfully he is perfectly fine and hopefully he has a quick and great recovery.” But I don’t think we say thank you enough. So I want to say thank you to Tiger, because sometimes you lose people very quickly. Kobe (Bryant), I lost my grandfather. . . About a month ago, and thank you for not saying that.
