Tiger Woods, the legendary golfer, has returned to Augusta National Golf Club for practice rounds ahead of the Masters Tournament. Despite his limited time on competitive golf courses in recent years, Woods remains confident in his ability to win another major championship.
Tiger Woods ' time on competitive golf courses has been considerably limited in recent years. But, this week the legendary golfer emerged for practice rounds at Augusta National Golf Club, the longtime site of the prestigious Masters Tournament . 2019 marked Woods' fifth-time winning the coveted green jacket. Despite a string of injury setbacks, he remains confident he can secure one more major championship — atleast if a few things work in his favor.
When the 88th edition of the Masters tees off on Thursday, it will mark Woods' 26th appearance at the major tournament. Woods has not appeared at a PGA Tour event since February's Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club in California. He withdrew in the second round due to an illness. Woods, who is still searching for a record-tying sixth Masters championship, previously shared his intentions to compete in a tournament on a monthly basis, pending his physical condition. But, after his early exit at the Genesis Invitational, Woods also missed the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship last month. Woods said he decided to skip those tournaments because his body was not in a state to compete. 'Well, I wasn't ready to play,' Woods said.
