Tiger Woods isn't wasting any time in his dual role as playing captain at the Presidents Cup

Tiger Woods waited nearly 20 years to get revenge on a caddie for trash-talking him at the Presidents Cup
Tiger Woods has proven time and time again to be a patient golfer on the course. Apparently, that discipline extends to trash-talking as well.

On Wednesday, after waiting nearly 20 years, Woods finally jabbed back at caddie Paul Tesori for something that happened at the 2000 Presidents Cup. Webb Simpson's current caddie was on Vijay Singh's bag at the time and infamously wore a hat that read “TIGER WHO?” ahead of Singh's Sunday singles match against Woods. Tiger had the last laugh that day, winning 2&1. And now, two decades later, Woods and Tesori shared a laugh over these hats provided to the U.S. team by its captain.

OK, so it's not so much trash-talking as it is trash-writing, but still, that's pretty good. And that's quite a long time to wait. Hey, revenge is a dish best served cold. Even if it's freezing cold.

Patrick Reed gets ripped for rules controversy, Presidents Cup couples get fancy, and Rickie Fowler’s ex performs a beautiful cover
Welcome to another edition of The Grind where we have never been more excited for the Presidents Cup. Great venue? Check. Primetime viewing? Check. Tiger Woods playing the role of participant and captain? Check. Patrick Reed playing the role of villain? Check. Kudos(?) to Captain America for inadvertently adding some SPICE to an event that was a total snoozefest (“The Romp by the Swamp”) last time. Here’s an actual photo I took at Liberty National during Day 3 of the 2017 Presidents Cup:
FacebookPinterestBut seriously, there’s a lot to get to and Reed has a lot to do with it. Bad job by him in that bunker and bad job by me only putting him No. 7 in our PGA Tour Content Kings ranking. Like he famously said, he’s top five in the world.

Nemanja Bjelica drops game-winning tre and interview f-bomb to cap eventful evening
If you're not hooked up to a nightly NBA IV, then you missed one hell of a finish to Kings-Rockets on Monday. The fun fired up with about :24 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, when Ben McLemore drained a three to put Houston up 116-113. Buddy Hield answered right back with a three of his own, before Russell Westbrook seemingly won it for the Rockets, driving the lane and laying in a lovely little finger roll to give the Rockets the advantage with one tick left. Westbrook thought it was over—even said it was over—but he didn't account for the Serbian sniper Nemanja Bjelica, who grabbed the inbounds, chucked up a deep one from Steph town as the buzzer sounded, and watched gleefully as it rippled the net. It was the first of two great moments for Bjelica on the night.
