On Tuesday, golf legend Tiger Woods revealed that he “didn’t sleep” after learning about the shocking assassination attempt on his friend, former President Donald Trump.
On Saturday, during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Thomas Matthew Crooks wounded former President Trump in the upper part of his right ear in a failed assassination attempt.
A Secret Service sniper then shot and killed Crooks.
Woods held a press conference on Tuesday where he talked about his reaction to the shooting and how it affected his preparations for this week’s British Open.
“I didn’t accomplish a lot because I wasn’t in the right frame of mind,” he said.
“It was a long night [due to the assassination attempt], and that’s all we watched the entire time on the way over here. I didn’t sleep at all on the flight, and then we just got on the golf course,” he added.
Woods and Trump are not just friends but also business partners. The 15-time major winner even designed a golf course for Trump on his property in Dubai.
If Woods wins the British Open, it would mark his first major victory since The Masters in 2019.
