Tiger Woods outdrives Justin Thomas, lets him know about it in humorous fashion
If there's anything Tiger Woods loves more than winning, it's some good old-fashioned needling. And when one of golf's younger stars is involved? Even better.
Justin Thomas became the latest (repeat) victim of a Woods jab during Wednesday's opening round of the Hero World Challenge.

He won three Stanley Cups, two with the Detroit Red Wings and one with the Montreal Canadiens, made 11 All-Star teams and won three Norris Trophies. He's widely recognized as one of the 10 greatest defenseman to ever do it, and is arguably the greatest American-born player of all-time. So yeah, legend status.
Despite all these on-ice accolades, his most legendary, and most American, moment may have come when he was riding the pine during the 2009 Winter Classic.
