He’ll be looping for CW more than he’ll be teeing it up himself over the next 5-10 years

Imagine if a tournament director asked him to eat at the caddie dining instead of the clubhouse. 🤣

Thus, fans had a lot to say.
Is Tiger Woods really getting into Caddying?
While recent trips to the course indicate a pattern, it’s safe to say that Woods will soon return to action. The injuries he sustained in the single-car rollover car crash in Los Angeles have needed considerable time to recover.
Possibly to eliminate any such outlook, Woods hurried his way back to last year’s Major Championships. He received an invitation as a past winner but failed to make any inroads. While he secured the 47th rank in the 2022 Masters, he did so while shooting 13-over par.

His performances at the other Majors were below-par. He didn’t make the cut in the Open Championship at the Old Course. Woods withdrew from the PGA Championship before opting out of the U.S. Open.
However, in reassuring news, several media sources have reported Woods to be back by year-end. If history is anything to be believed, Woods will eye a comeback in the Hero World Challenge.

Further, the golfer will host the event, which provides him with an option to enter the tournament. 17 members of the 20-man field have already been released, with Woods expected to enter in one of the three vacant spots.
