Tiger Woods met with a terrible accident on the 23rd of February 2021. Although the GOAT survived the accident, the severe injuries caused him to take a big break from golf. The event had put all the golf world in misery. And the former president of the United state felt no better. 

“I have no doubt about it. He’s going to be back,” Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox. As a die-hard fan of the sport, the former American President was heartbroken because of the news.

Trump explained that he knew the golfer both professionally and personally. He added, “As a golfer, he’s just incredible. He’s an incredible guy.” He further stated that the sport and the fans need Tiger to return to the course as nobody can make an impact as much as him. 

The former POTUS added, “All I’d say to him is get better and get out there because we all miss him. We need Tiger.”

The fateful accident involving Woods happened right after the 2021 Genesis Invitational. The 15-times major champion was severely injured because of it. Since the event, Woods has never attended an official tournament, although it has been a year.
