CNN — Tiger Woods handed Justin Thomas a tampon after outdriving his playing partner in an apparent prank that some on social media are saying has sexist overtones.

Thomas immediately discarded the tampon before the two men laughed and hugged as they walked off the tee on the ninth hole at the Genesis International on Thursday.

Woods’ reasons for handing Thomas a tampon are currently unclear.

It was obviously a private joke.

Those twits on Twitter should shut up, mind their own business and get a life.

I played in a few tournaments where the shortest drive had to wear a skirt for the remainder of that hole. The horror.

All us men should start carrying tampons in our pockets, if only to make a joke out of the notion that men can have periods too.

As an added bonus, should we run into a real woman in need, we will be able to help them out in gallant fashion.

How dare the social media critics assume Tiger and Justin’s genders.

We are living in a neighborhood Stalinist society. I keep saying it...I love women and respect them but there are enough crazy women feeling their oats and taking power and they’re destroying everything. My theory: Crazy leftist Women plus social media/media control equals the end of everything we knew.

Tiger’s sense of humor, like many aspects of his personality, is stunted.

Nevertheless, men are still free to rib each other in crude ways.

Please tell me you don't mean Tiger, or did you skip this part?

Both Players should BELITTLE or IGNORE any questions on what was obviously a private joke between friends.

ABSOLUTELY NO APOLOGY!

I golf. If you hit a weak shot or hit a putt way short you will hear me ask: “Did your skirt fly up in your face?”

That’s nothing compared to when I get together with my old high school pals.

That CNN questions this shows that they are racist and need to pay reparations to all black people. The reason is that they are prejudiced that Tiger cannot be refusing to assume his playing partner’s gender identity just because he is half black.

These same whiners are calling for tampons in the boy’s rest rooms in schools.

Funny joke - I always make fun of fellow golfers - asking them if they tripped over their skirt.

It's not a 'dis' on women. It's an acknowledgement that the two sexes are different - with each of them having different strengths.

People need to get a life...
