‘No Wonder…’: Justin Thomas Reacts to Exciting Tiger Woods News

There was a time when Tiger Woods used to be the cover model of all the golf-related products. However, the golfer started losing that image after he faced some setbacks, both professionally and personally. The 15-time major champion now got that image back as he became the cover model of a video after nine years. 

The last time Woods did a cover for a video game was in 2013, for the ‘Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2014.’ He had done it with the late PGA Tour veteran Arnold Palmer then. Nine years later, the 46-year-old has become the cover once again for the ‘PGA Tour 2k23;’ notably, no other golfers share it with him this time. And the golfer expressed his happiness by sharing the news on Twitter. 

Since it is a significant achievement in his career, many from the golf world appreciated him for it. As one of his best friends on the Tour, the pro-golfer Justin Thomas also commented on the post; however, it was not in a way anybody would have ever expected! 

Justin Thomas made a funny remark on Woods’ achievement

“No wonder I didn’t get the callback for the cover… SMH,” he wrote as a comment to Woods’ post. Thomas is known for making funny or sarcastic comments about the Tour players he has good relationships with. And as a person whom Woods considers a younger brother, he didn’t let go of the opportunity to try out his humor on the legendary golfer.

It is not the first time JT has ever interacted with a funny comment on a fellow golfer’s social media post. Therefore, the golf world knew he was joking and appreciated Woods through the comment, and thus responded to it accordingly. 

Notably, the fans reacted the same way as Thomas as they added a fun way to address how Woods’ experience and legacy over any golfers in this generation. 

The legacy of Tiger Woods

In his 26 years of professional golfing career, Tiger Woods has achieved a lot. He has won more than 100 titles worldwide, including 15 major tournaments and 18 World Golf Championships. 

He has also created many records, like winning all the majors in a row (Tiger Slam) and being the youngest to win the career slam. Woods was only 24 years when he completed winning all majors at least once in his career. 

With injuries and other personal issues, Woods hasn’t been in his element after 2013. He started winning less, making him lose opportunities like he used to get in his prime era. However, being the face of the new video game, ‘PGA Tour 2k23,’ he has made his way back into the golf world, and his fans and colleagues are happy for him.
