Back fine but 'dizzy, dehydrated' Woods out of Genesis

He was one over after six holes and had just teed off at the par-four seventh hole when he decided to call it quits and was then carted away by a rules official with his head buried in his hands.

The 48-year-old Woods, who is also serving as tournament host this week, dealt with back spasms in the first round on Feb 15, when he finished eight shots behind the leader and in a share of 49th place after a one-over 72.

"He started feeling some flu-like symptoms last night. Woke up this morning, they were worse than the night previous," Woods' business partner and close friend Rob McNamara said.
