He speaks!
After imploding Saturday and shooting a career worst 85 at the 2015 Memorial Tournament, Tiger Woods got out of Dodge and did not speak to reporters or do any interviews.
But following a final-round 74 on Sunday, Woods actually spoke. In his press conference, Tiger reflected on his round, the crowds and overall play during the 2015 Memorial Tournament.

Tiger Woods Press Conference
Tiger’s last-place finish was the first time he finished in last place among players to make a cut in a tournament, according to Elias. Playing by himself Sunday, Woods played the last two holes in 3-over with a double-bogey at the last – to complete his 15th Memorial Tournament in 302 strokes at 14-over par, his highest 72-hole total ever.
“Just because I’m in last place doesn’t change how I play golf. Whether it’s the first day or last day doesn’t matter, play all out.”

Tiger Woods drops to No. 181 in the world ranking, one spot behind Hyungsung Kim.
