History-making golf pro Tiger Woods famously told talk show host, actor and entrepreneur Oprah Winfrey that he struggled to “check a box” that described his ethnic background. Between his parents, his traceable roots were Black, Chinese, Native American, Thai and Dutch.

Now, an Instagram post says Woods publicly criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, whose father is Jamaican and whose mother was Indian, as not being authentically Black. Harris is the 2024 Democratic nominee for president.

“‘Kamala’s fake black accent is embarrassing and extremely offensive – Tiger Woods’,” text on an Instagram photo said. The photo looked like a screengrab of an X featuring images of Woods and Harris.

The Instagram post was flagged as part of Meta’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Meta, which owns Facebook, Threads, and Instagram.)

But Woods didn’t say this.
