Wiegman: Woods tampon incident 'very inappropriate

England manager Sarina Wiegman took aim at Tiger Woods branding the American's decision to give his playing partner a tampon "very inappropriate".

Woods, 47, handed the sanitary product to Justin Thomas after outdriving his countryman on the ninth hole at the first round of the Genesis Invitational on Thursday.

The 15-time major winner, who was making his return to top-level action for the first time since July, apologised at a subsequent press conference.

"It was supposed to be all fun and games and obviously it hasn't turned out that way," said Woods. "If I offended anybody in any way, shape or form, I'm sorry

But speaking ahead of her side's Arnold Clark Cup fixture against Italy on Sunday, Wiegman said: "It is very inappropriate, and I think he has realised that too.

"He is such a big role model and he can have a positive impact on society. He should be conscious of that at all times."
