‘Looks Painful’: Tiger Woods Alarms Golf World with Concerning Health Visuals

Destiny does not seem to be on Tiger Woods’s side. What was supposed to be his legendary comeback in his inaugural feature in an official event of the PGA Tour in 2024 has drastically turned into a culmination of back-to-back health problems. After months of spending time fixing the issues with his ankle, his back has now taken center stage at the 2024 Genesis Invitational.

Posting a video of Tiger Woods walking, the PGA Tour wrote on X, “Good morning, Tiger.” This video went viral in the golf world. Fans of the legend were left in a state of shock after spotting their favorite golfer struggling with his health.

After having a first day full of struggles at the signature event, the tournament host was seen limping on the second day. The 48-year-old was also spotted wearing a leg sleeve to provide adequate warmth for his injured leg.

Woods confirmed on Thursday and said, “My back was spasming the last couple holes, and it was locking up. I came down and it didn’t move and I presented hosel first and shanked it.” Woods has now withdrawn from three of his last six tournaments since the 2022 Masters and only completed 72 holes on the PGA Tour twice (including at Riviera last season).
