“I don’t think anyone can comprehend the type of pain Tiger is in. Looks at him applying icy hot to his body while he already has a pain patch on his back. He’s wrapped up like a mummy and only 1 over. Dude is a warrior!”
Tiger Woods also participated in the Masters in 2023 but he was forced to withdraw from the competition after making the cut at the event. Interestingly, Woods has also made the cut at the Masters 2024, becoming the golfer with the most consecutive cuts at the Augusta event.
