As the golf world gears up for the highly anticipated Masters tournament next week, all eyes are on Tiger Woods, who appears to have made a bold decision in preparation for the event.
Wood’s sex ban ahead of Masters tournament
According to sources close to the golfing legend, Woods has reportedly imposed a self-imposed ban on sex until after the tournament, in a bid to maintain his focus and dedication to the game.
In an exclusive interview with The New York Post, a friend of Woods revealed, “He’s working really hard in the gym. He’s eating right. He’s even eliminated sex. He does that now when he’s preparing: no sex until the tournament is over. He doesn’t want anything to take away his focus.”
The report comes amidst speculation about Woods’ personal life following his highly publicized breakup with former girlfriend Erica Herman in 2023.
Despite rumors swirling about his dating life, Woods’ friend remained tight-lipped, stating, “there’s no one to speak of.”
Woods, who has won the Masters a remarkable five times, is undoubtedly aiming to secure his sixth green jacket at Augusta National.
Despite facing ongoing physical challenges, including mobility issues in his left ankle and chronic back pain, Woods remains determined to compete at the highest level.
Woods has an uphill physical battle before Masters
Former Stanford teammate and longtime friend Notah Begay III commented on Woods’ physical condition, acknowledging the challenges he faces.
“He’s trying to formulate a strategy and approach that he can work within given the constraints that he’s presented with,”Begay said.
“And he’s got some constraints.”
Despite these obstacles, Woods recently played Augusta National alongside PGA pal Justin Thomas and club chairman Fred Ridley, indicating his commitment to preparing for the tournament.
His most recent victory at Augusta came in 2019, marking a triumphant return to form after a decade-long drought in major victories.
“He’s got zero mobility in that left ankle and really has low-back challenges now, which he knew he was going to have,”Begay also revealed.
“For the past couple months, he’s been trying to find a way to recover,”Begay went on explaining Woods’ biggest hurdle.
“He can play the golf. We always knew the question was going to be ‘Can he walk the 72 (holes)?’ That’s still up in the air. But can he recover, from one round to the next? That’s the biggest question that I really don’t know and he’s not going to know either until he gets out there and figures out whether the way he’s prepared for this year’s Masters is going to work for him.”
With the Masters just around the corner, the question remains: Will Tiger Woods’ unconventional preparation pay off? Golf fans will have to wait until April 11th to witness the outcome as Woods takes to the course in pursuit of golfing glory once again.
