It’s been one setback after another for golf legend Tiger Woods. While his legacy continues to make the rounds among the golf community, the 47-year-old’s break from the game feels like an eternity for his ardent fans as they hope for a piece of positive news from the legend with each passing day.

But at long last, the GOAT might finally be back in the sport. The much-anticipated Hero World Challenge might see a return of the golfer as Woods dropped a hint of his comeback to golf, and nothing short of a massive one at that!

Tiger Woods to return to the course?

Woods has been spotted many times on the course over the past year as he took to caddying for his son. He also played host at the TGR Invitational at Pebble Beach and hit a few practice shots on the greens. And now, the golfer might finally be back to compete in a tournament, with the lucky event turning out to be his own Hero World Challenge.

A story was uploaded by the American professional on his Instagram handle, which showcased the 47-year-old sharing a video of the upcoming event in Albany, Bahamas. The reel that the 15X major winner shared was uploaded by the official social media handle of TGR Live, the GOAT’s venture.

The video includes snaps of the various golfers who were announced for the competition, which included the likes of Viktor Hovland, and Scottie Scheffler, among others. However, the legend is also being speculated to take part as the field of players that were posted left a slot empty, and Woods sharing the video on his Instagram left many wondering and in hopes of the 82X PGA Tour champ to participate in the event himself.

The announcement was received merrily by Woods’ loyal fanbase, many of whom were praying to get a glimpse of their idol on the field. However, will he be able to make a comeback similar to another one of his counterparts, a LIV golfer at that?

Sergio Garcia’s comeback story raises concern for Woods

Among Woods’ long-time nemesis, Sergio Garcia had suffered from a left knee injury during the LIV Golf finale at Miami in 2022. The Spaniard played the event while sporting a torn meniscus, forcing him to undergo treatment earlier this year. However, his revelation after recovery does provide causes for concern for the GOAT.

Such a piece of news does provide a cause for worry for Woods, who is gearing up for a comeback.

Well, the fans can only hope for the Hall of Famer to make a successful resurgence as they eagerly wait for the same!
