Tiger Woods has been going through a lot in the past few days. His TGL recently started rolling out updates ahead of its scheduled launch in January. With the developments in the league, things have been crazy in the TGL camp. Meanwhile, his return to competitive golf is also under speculation for quite a while now. 

However, there was a dampening effect on that discussion because of his recent outing. Tiger Woods was spotted walking along a golf course that he designed, and fans noticed limping in his walk. Concerned about his health, they were wondering how soon the legend could start walking with ease. Tiger Woods has offered an answer to that question.

With Charlie Woods’ crucial tournament coming up, there have been doubts about whether Tiger Woods could caddie for his son. The doubts came up because of Tiger Woods’ walk that people observed recently. Fans were concerned about Woods’ limp.

Ahead of the WWT Championship, Tiger Woods was scouting along the course that he had designed at El Cardonal. And his walk had a noticeable limp at the time. Some comments also pointed out that he had gained weight.

Now, Charlie Woods is busy practicing for the NB3 National Championship in Louisiana. And a recent video from a fan shows Tiger Woods walking along the course just fine. There was hardly a hint of limp. Not only the limp was missing, but his walk was more natural compared to his other outings in recent times. He was also carrying his son’s bag comfortably. 

This should probably shut down the doubts about whether Woods can caddie for his son in the crucial tournament in Junior Woods’s career. It looks like Mr. T is in a good enough condition to caddie for Charlie Woods at the NB3.

The improved walk is a good sign because, as per the plan, Tiger Woods will play at the TGL, starting in January 2024. The league has already been facing a lot of hiccups, and ideally, Woods wouldn’t want his absence to worsen things. 

Tiger Woods and his ambitious Empire in the making

The TGL came into existence last year and Jon Rahm was one of the few top players to sign very early for the league. He stayed in the camp until very recently, when the final 24-player roster became public. After players started joining teams, and the format of the league became public, Rahm stepped out. It wasn’t exactly a smooth exit by any measure.

His name and mentions completely disappeared from the TGL website. And hours later, Rahm tweeted about how things didn’t work out and he had to withdraw from the project. The presence of Mr.T will serve as a much-needed boost to the TGL. Hopefully, Tiger Woods will be in good health to support the league and get it to a great launch.
