Golf star Tiger Woods wasn't able to hit the links on Sunday for the WGC-Workday Championship. However, he was there in spirit.
Several players showed up to the final round of the championship wearing a red shirt and black pants in honor of Woods, who suffered serious leg injuries in a rollover car crash on Tuesday.
Woods has traditionally worn red and black since the early days of his professional career.

Woods underwent surgery at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center earlier this week and had a rod, pins and screws inserted into his leg after the accident. He was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for continuing orthopedic care on Wednesday.
According to a doctor and injury analyst for Fox Sports, Woods is expected to be rehabilitating for eight-to-12 months.
