Golfer Tiger Woods said, “Kamala [Harris]’s fake Black accent is embarrassing and extremely offensive.”
A rumor that pro golfer Tiger Woods condemned U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris for affecting a “fake Black accent” circulated online in early September 2024, four weeks before Harris and former President Donald Trump were to face off in the presidential election.
For example, Facebook page American Liberty posted a meme that claimed Woods stated, “Kamala’s fake Black accent is embarrassing and extremely offensive.”
However, there was no evidence Woods ever made such a statement. Rather, the rumor about Woods calling Harris’ accent “offensive” originated with the American Liberty page — a Facebook account with an “Introduction” describing it as “A subsidiary of the [America’s Last Line of Defense] ALLOD network of trollery. Nothing on this page is real.”
