Tiger (48) flew today from Florida to Augusta and practiced as the tournament’s official social media profile shared photos of the legendary golfer practicing.
At the tournament, Tiger will attempt to set a Masters record by making the cut for the 24th straight time. In the past season, Woods made the 36-hole cut and evened Gary Player and Fred Couples but withdrew before the rain-delayed 3rd round resumed as he sustained an injury in his right foot.
Notah Begay III, Tiger’s ex-teammate at Stanford and a golf expert, revealed a few days ago that the star is having lower back problems.
Despite that, Woods will try everything to overcome the pain and make a strategy that will allow him to compete at Augusta, as Notah claims that Tiger has 0 mobility in his left ankle.
