Tiger Commits To December Return, Tells Palmer Story On "Late Show"

Tiger Woods was a guest on CBS' "The Late Show" last night, and said he will compete at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas in December, a tournament he hosts. Woods: "I'll be there." Woods also told a story about the late Arnold Palmer taking him out for dinner while at Stanford. Woods: "My coach finds out, says, ‘Did you pick up the tab?’ It's Arnold Palmer, I'm a college student. ... So he says, ‘Well, I don't know about this.’ So he calls [NCAA], they deem me ineligible.” Woods: "I had to write a check to Arnold Palmer for $25. ... He had to cash the check, send a fax copy to the [NCAA] and I then was eligible." Host Stephen Colbert also asked about the presidents with which Woods has played golf. Colbert: "What about Trump?" Woods: "You said presidents" ("The Late Show," CBS, 10/20).
