Woods, who is playing in the Genesis Invitational, gave Thomas the tampon in seeming jest after his drive went further than the one Thomas hit.
Although Thomas laughed at the gesture, he appeared to drop the tampon on the ground afterward.
On Friday, Woods acknowledged he’d gotten public backlash for the apparently sexist joke.
“It was supposed to be all fun and games, but obviously, it hasn’t turned out that way,” Woods told reporters. “If I offended anybody, it was not the case, it was just friends having fun.”
He later added, “If I offended anybody in any way, shape, or form, I’m sorry.”
People on Twitter gave the apology mixed reviews, noting that yes, Woods had offended people.
