CHARITY MATCH AT INDIA'S DELHI GOLF CLUB

TIGER MAKES 1O BIRDIES IN  SKINS 
GAME - BUT HE'S STILL LOSING
By PGATOUR.COM news services
Tiger Woods competed Tuesday in a charity skins game in India. Woods, who met cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar on Monday, was making his first visit to the country. 
He tweeted, "Great day of golf. Hopefully this visit, in some small way, helps grow the game in this amazing place."
Woods made 10 birdies in the skins game at Delhi Golf Club, but he and partner Pawan Munjal, the chairman of Hero Motors, lost to professionals Shiv Kapur and Aniban Lahiri, according to Golfingindian.com.

In a video posted on golfingindian.com, Woods said Delhi Golf Club was the narrowest course he'd ever played.
 Woods played with Shiv Kapur, India's top male golfer, Sharmila Nicollet, India's top female golfer, Anirban Lahiri, the CEO of automaker Hero Co., and Pawan Munjal, the Hero managing director, who set up the trip, which sources in India said earned Woods $2 million.
"I had a great time on my first visit to India," Woods told GolfDigest.com in an email interview. "It was a blast. Arjun (Atwal) had told me a lot about the country, and I was really looking forward to seeing it. I enjoy going to new places, and I feel like I learned a lot about the country while I was there."
