‘He’s So Back’: Weeks After His Surgery, Latest Tiger Woods Update Triggers a Huge Wave of Excitement in the Golf Community

It’s been a painful few months since the great Tiger Woods announced his withdrawal from the famed Masters Tournament. A nagging ankle concern, aggravated by harsh weather conditions, set him back at Augusta National despite confirming his ticket for the weekend.

Woods hasn’t been in the public eye since, with reports confirming that he has undergone fusion surgery to alleviate the pain. But the golf legend has been exclusively pictured entering a golf course. Is Tiger Woods ready to spark a comeback in professional golf?

Tiger Woods spotted at a golf course

The 47-year-old has been undergoing rehabilitation post-surgery, which made him unavailable for this year’s PGA Championship. However, with the U.S. Open merely weeks away, it looks like Woods is giving it a go.

The golf legend was allegedly pictured driving a golf cart from the back of a golf course. While his condition remains unclear, the reasons for his visit do. The 15-time major championship winner is out cheering his son, budding golfer Charlie Woods, in his golfing endeavor.

From the photograph that has been widely circulated on social media, it looks like young Charlie is participating in one of the U.S. Kids Golf tournaments, for which Woods Sr. willingly made a public entry. Further clips could help clarify his condition in the days to come.

Evidently, fans were delighted to see their golf legend back in action. “Oh he’s so back,” a user cheerfully tweeted. “Legendary combination right there!!” said another, who pointed out Woods’ famous Tiger golf club cap.

Will Tiger Woods play in the U.S. Open?

Having restricted himself to playing in a handful of tournaments in a calendar year, Woods has already missed one of the four major championships this year due to injury. The Masters niggle turned horrendous for the 47-year-old, who reportedly faces a race against time to get fit for the U.S. Open.

His latest setback, an ankle injury, has been cured after a fusion operation in New York, days after his Masters withdrawal. While no specific timeline was provided for his recuperation, fans predicted that the injury would subside in time for the U.S. Open.
