Tiger Woods’ last public appearance before his devastating car accident on Tuesday was at Rolling Hills Country Club in Los Angeles, California, with several celebrities on Monday.
Woods was doing a content shoot for Golf Digest/GOLFTV with several celebrities, including Dwyane Wade, Jada Pinkett Smith, and David Spade after Woods served as host for the PGA Tour’s Genesis Invitational over the weekend. It is believed that Woods was heading back to the location for the second day of shooting on Tuesday when he crashed.
However, it was not his last golfing appearance before the crash as Woods did not get the opportunity to participate in the event. He was recovering from a microdiscectomy procedure to remove a pressurized disc fragment that was pinching a nerve.
As part of the event, Woods offered instruction to several celebrity participants. These participants include Wade, Spade, and Pinkett Smith.
