]]>Woods will be looking to make the cut at the Masters for the 24th consecutive time, which would be a new record. He is currently tied with Gary Player and Fred Couples at 23 made cuts.
Woods made it to the third round at the 2023 Masters but decided to withdraw after play was suspended due to heavy rain on Saturday. Woods explained that he was dealing with a plantar fasciitis injury in his foot and that he was unable to walk properly.
After last year’s Masters, Woods’ only other PGA Tour appearance was the Genesis Invitational in February. He had to withdraw once again, this time citing lower back tightness and flu as the reasons.
Tiger Woods was involved in a car crash in February 2021 and sustained multiple leg injuries that required surgery. This was followed by another surgery in April 2023 to address lingering ankle issues. Since the crash, Woods made six starts and only finished two tournaments.

]]>In a statement posted on Twitter, Woods shared that the procedure addressed the consequences of the injuries he suffered in a car crash he had in early 2021. The surgery was determined as “successful,” and the 47-year-old is currently recovering and “looks forward to beginning his rehabilitation.”
When reached out to by The Associated Press, Wood’s agent Mark Steinberg said that there is currently “no timetable” on Woods’ return to golf.
“The first goal is to recover and lead a much more enjoyable day-to-day life,” Steinberg added.
Tiger Woods played in the 2023 Masters earlier this month, making the cut for the 23rd straight time in his career and tying the all-time record for most consecutive cuts made. He would go on to retire from the event in the third round after leg pain made it hard for him to move through the first eight holes.
Woods previously intended to appear in all four major events this year, but that won’t be the case now. PGA Championship, the U.S. Open, and The Open are all taking place in the next three months, and considering the usual recovery time for the surgery Woods had, he won’t recover in time to play at any of them.

Memorial Tournament will be Woods’ first tournament since February and the final round of the Genesis Invitational. He then missed WGC Mexico Championship, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and the Players Championship due to back stiffness before the PGA Tour was suspended.
Tiger Woods previously announced that he recovered from knee surgery he underwent in August and will be fit enough to defend his Masters win from 2019. Masters will be scheduled to take place in April but was postponed until November due to coronavirus pandemic.
PGA Championship and U.S. Open were also rescheduled and will now take place in August and September respectively. The Open Championship, on the other hand, has canceled its 2020 edition.

]]>Luckily for Woods, however, the procedure shouldn’t sideline him for an extended period of time, and he is expected to make a full recovery in time for PGA Tour tournament in Japan in October.
“I expect Tiger to make a full recovery. We did what was needed, and also examined the entire knee. There were no additional problems,” said Dr. Vern Cooley, who performed the procedure, in a statement shared on Wood’s official Twitter profile.
After struggling with back injuries for the past several years, Tiger Woods made a big comeback in 2019 when he won Masters Tournament. This was his first majors win in 11 years. Although it looked like he left injuries behind at the time, Woods soon found himself facing health issues again.
Woods dealt with back stiffness in recent months while suffering a neck strain that saw him being forced to miss the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He also pulled out of Northern Trust due to oblique strain.

]]>Woods finished the final round of the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club with a -13 score, winning the tournament for the fifth time in his career.
It was his first win at Augusta since 2005, 14 years ago.
Woods, who is currently ranked 12th in the PGA Tour rankings, captured a major tournament win for the first time since 2008.
After emerging as one of the top players in the history of golf in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Woods stormed his way to 14 major tournament wins.
However, in the late 2000s, injury and personal scandal began to take a toll on Woods and his career.
Woods appeared finished for the better part of this decade after undergoing four back surgeries and going to jail after being arrested for a DUI.
However, after some modest success in smaller tournaments and regained strength helped him start to regain his form, Woods finally capped a comeback for the ages on Sunday.
At 43 years old, he became the second-oldest player to win the Masters.
The Green Jacket is finally his again, 14 years later.
