Tiger Woods: The Comeback Journey Hits a Speedbump
Tiger Woods had us all dreaming of a once-a-month golf spectacle, but reality had other plans. February saw him exit early at the Genesis Invitational – a full stop thanks to an illness. Two major events, including the Arnold Palmer Invitational, where he’s an eight-time champ, came and went without a Tiger sighting. Bluntly put by the man himself: ">My body wasn’t ready. My game wasn’t ready."
The Struggle Is Real: Battling Aches and Pains
Last December sparkled with hope when Woods wrapped up at the Hero World Challenge, eyeing a regular spot on the green from February through July. Turns out "things flare up," as Woods says – the back, the knee – it's all fair game. There was even a back spasm triggered shank that had him gritting his teeth. But hope springs eternal, and with major championships now every month, Tiger’s once-a-month goal is back on the docket.
- The Augusta Challenge: Bigger than those infamous hills, it's the grind on Woods' body that's the real beast. Uneven lies are no joke.
- Daily Training Battles: Some days are good, some days? Not so much. Each day’s a roll of the dice in the game of health for Woods. With a grin, he concedes, ">I hurt every day. I ache every day."
Masters 2024 is where he sets for a record 24th consecutive cut. Watch Woods tee off alongside Max Homa and Jason Day – it’s going to be a Masters to remember!
Tiger Woods on his Masters Game Plan
Despite intentions to play monthly post-ankle surgery, Tiger Woods admits falling off plan. After skipping events like the Arnold Palmer Invitational due to unreadiness, he acknowledges daily pain and varying training intensity. Woods looks to resume his once-a-month schedule, starting with the demanding Augusta National. With both high hopes and health challenges, he aims for a historic 24th consecutive Masters cut.
