Tiger Woods and his failed manifestations
Tiger and his history of going through multiple surgeries are not hidden from anyone. The pro golfer expected things to get better once he was over with seven surgeries. But life is unpredictable, even for the world famous golfer.
A few years back around his 40th birthday, when he was asked if he could see himself at the top again, he answered in the affirmative.
Woods said, “Absolutely. I have to get healthy in order to do it, though. I don’t think I’ll ever be 100% healthy, but as close as you can to that point, that would be nice. As long as I don’t have the pain, then I don’t think there would be an issue. I will probably play through a little bit of pain, aches, and pains, as you get older, you have more aches and pains.”
He added, “But I don’t need another surgery, period. Let’s just not go down that road ever again. No more surgeries. Seven’s enough. Four knees, three backs, that’s enough.”
However, this was clearly not how things went for Woods. He met with a serious car accident in 2021. The images of the crash stunned the world. The star player severely injured his right leg and foot. Although many people from the Sports World speculated this to be the end of Woods’ career in golf, he chose to fight his limitations.
However, how things will turn out for Woods in the future is yet to be witnessed for all of us.
Woods on LIV Golf
It is very clear that Woods is a PGA Tour loyalist. The pro-golfer rejected around an $800m LIV Golf offer to maintain his loyalty to The PGA Tour. It was an opportunity that could potentially double his net worth but Tiger was sure to make his priorities clear.

He had a strong stand on the ongoing LIV controversy. He had shared his contentions about players defecting to LIV golf in the past.
According to him, some players would sadly never experience how it is to play the Tour. The world-famous pro golfer values his PGA Tour legacy more than the money the league offers.
