Tiger Woods was injured on February 23, two days after the Genesis Invitational at Riviera.
Tiger Woods is back at home in Florida to resume his recovery from career-threatening leg injuries he suffered when his SUV ran off a road and down a hill in the Los Angeles suburbs last month. Happy to report that I am back home and continuing my recovery, Woods said in a tweet posted Tuesday night. I am so grateful for the outpouring of support and encouragement that I have received over the past few weeks. Woods was injured Feb. 23, two days after the Genesis Invitational at Riviera. He was on his way to a television shoot for GolfTV a little after 7 a.m. when his SUV crashed into a median, rolled over and ended up on its side near a steep road known for wrecks, authorities aid. He had to be pulled out through the windshield.

IF THE WEATHER is starting to feel autumnal in your neck of the woods, Northland is calling you. Summer glows all the more longer, the weather and foliage is seductively subtropical and the sun-kissed beaches are absurdly gorgeous.
Northland s thriving capital of Whangārei, is a city of adventure, culture and natural beauty.
Head for the summit of Parihaka, the city s highest point, which was once the site of the largest Māori pā (fortified village) in New Zealand. The excavations are still visible and are accessed by a pleasant walk through native forest from the summit.

EVE of the 2020 PBA Rookie Draft. All mock drafts have been put out. Suddenly Terrafirma coach Johnedel Cardel came out with an ambiguous statement that basically says that contrary to popular belief, the Dyip aren t completely settled on making Joshua Munzon the No. 1 overall pick on Sunday.
Just like that, all the mock drafts came in danger of being thrown out the window as the pieces begin to crumble from the top down.
The doubt has been cast. And it s not without basis. Did the pre-draft noise around Fil-Am guard Mikey Williams - or TnT s late move to get the No. 4 pick from sister team NLEX -change the mind of whoever makes the decisions for Terrafirma?
Cathie Wood: A tech investor doing God s work

By: Michael Mackenzie Earlier this week, and for no obvious reason, Cathie Wood s US$23 billion ($32b) flagship Ark investment innovation fund rose 10 per cent in a day. On Wall Street that kind of bounce is usually a warning sign of frothy markets, especially given Ark s recent price falls. Not for Wood. Buy the dip, is a catchphrase.
Wood is the public face of a speculative tech boom many liken to the dot.com boom and bust of the early 2000s. The success of Tesla and other technology stocks that Ark owns has, together with massive investor inflows, propelled the combined value of the five exchange traded funds she manages to US$60b from US$3b just a year ago.
