Big Cat was seen hugging and laughing out loud with joy. Away from the good days, the pair has seen the struggle too.

The journey of the golfer, apart from struggling with his love life, has also been through a tough phase after his accident in 2021. He incurred serious leg injuries and had to be extracted from the car using the axe and other tools. But despite the downfalls, the golfer has stood strong and made his way back to the course. However, the struggle continued later as he had earlier taken time off to recover from a back injury, then the sudden demise of his mother, Kultida Woods. With the continued struggle, the Big Cat hasn’t been able to make the comeback.

The speculation on his comeback has been widespread across the community. Even recently, Andy North was asked during the ESPN Masters Call.

Back in 2020, when the father-son duo featured in the tournament together, Woods shared his feelings.
