"I do not feel like it"
"I don't want to go to the Middle East. Mine is a choice dictated also by a journey that is too long and by other commitments that await me," explained Woods to the American broadcaster Espn. The inaugural event in January 2019 was overshadowed by the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in October 2018. The European Tour was strongly criticized for its decision to continue with the event. However, the American legend has respected the choice of some of his colleagues, like Phil Mickelson and defending champion Dustin Johnson, to play: "I know that in those countries golf is growing. For this reason I don't feel like criticizing the players who have decided to participate in the event ".

If you are interested in continuing to listen to another bell, perhaps imperfect and some irritating days, continue to do so with conviction.
