Paige Spiranac Reacts to Kevin Kisner’s Bunker Blunder That Left Tiger Woods in StitchesMARCALAPRESSE

Tiger Woods made a highly anticipated debut in the TGL, leading his team, Jupiter Links GC, against Los Angeles GC. Walking out to the iconic “Eye of the Tiger,”Woods was all smiles, hyping up fans and promising an entertaining night of golf. He set the tone with a confident opening shot, but the match quickly veered off course for Jupiter Links. The team suffered a resounding 12-1 defeat, with five penalty balls highlighting their struggles.

The night wasn’t just about the scoreline. Kevin Kisner, a member of Woods’ team, delivered one of the tournament’s most unforgettable-and unfortunate-moments. On the par-3 14th hole, Kisner found himself in a bunker. Attempting what should’ve been a routine shot, he miscalculated spectacularly, sending the ball flying straight into the flagstick. The ricochet drew laughter from the crowd, with even Woods unable to stifle his amusement. “It was one of the funniest moments I’ve ever seen,”Woods admitted during the post-match press conference.

Kisner’s misstep quickly became a viral sensation. Social media buzzed with reactions, and golf influencer Paige Spiranac chimed in with her signature humor. Sharing a clip of the incident on X, she joked, “One of us! One of us! One of us!” playfully emphasizing her solidarity with Kisner while gently ribbing him.

Despite the comic relief, the night was bittersweet for Woods. While his team’s performance left much to be desired, the event showcased the TGL’s unique blend of competition and entertainment.“We’re here to have fun and showcase golf,”Woods said before the match. Though the result was disappointing, his lighthearted demeanor showed he’s embracing the TGL’s mission to bring a new energy to the sport.
