Is he back? Impossible as it may be to imagine given the gravity of the one-car crash he was in back in February 2021, a traumatic event that nearly caused him to have his right leg amputated, but …
Unlike a regular PGA Tour event, which has a Friday afternoon deadline for a player to commit, the Masters does not require that of a qualified participant. So, Woods didn’t need to announce his intentions Friday if he chose not to. And he apparently chose not to.
Woods was taken to Harbor-UCLA Medical Center by ambulance and had open fractures in the upper and lower portions of the tibia and fibula in his right leg. It all made for not only an unlikely return this soon, but possibly not likely at all.But Woods, who’s been adamant about keeping the bar of expectations set low for his latest return to the sport from injury in the few times he’s spoken publicly since the crash, always has been highly motivated by defying the odds.
Woods had emphasized that the father-son event, which he called “hits and giggles’’ golf, was not a proper barometer for PGA Tour tournament golf.“I wish I could tell you when I’m playing again,” Woods said on Feb. 16 at the Genesis Invitational. “I want to know, but I don’t. My golf activity has been very limited. I can chip and putt really well and hit short irons very well, but I haven’t done any long stuff seriously. I’m still working. I’m still working on the walking part.
One sign was clear when he arrived to Augusta for that practice round on Tuesday: He wouldn’t have made that trip unless he believed his golf game was in a place that would allow him to compete for a sixth green jacket, which would tie Jack Nicklaus for the most in tournament history.
