Tiger Woods was wrong to criticize the Pebble Beach greens as "awful," USGA executive director David Fay said Saturday at the U.S. Open.
Woods, who won the previous U.S. Open at Pebble Beach by a record 15 shots by making just about every putt inside 8 feet, failed to make a single birdie in his first round of 74. He said in a television interview, and later to reporters, that the greens were "just awful."
Woods didn't back down from that statement following his third-round 66 that left him at 1 under for the championship.
