”Tiger Woods is freaking back. Let's go” - Golf fans react to 15x Major winner's inclusion in official Masters entry list at Augusta
Tiger Woods is back on track once again for his 2024 golf season, as he has been included on the Masters list. After his withdrawal from the Genesis Invitational, his future plans remained in question.
This year however, Woods' name has been included on the first list for the Masters, under the Past Champions category. He has taken the win at the Masters 5 times so far.
Tiger Woods' 2023 Masters did not end well for him, as he withdrew from the third round due to an ankle injury. He underwent surgery for plantar fasciitis soon after, and remained in rehabilitation for the rest of the season.
He made his comeback in late 2023 at the Hero World Challenge, and then played with his son Charlie Woods at the PNC Championship. While he started the 2024 season at the Genesis Invitational, he withdrew midway due to flu-like symptoms.
Initially, Woods had planned to compete in one tournament a month, which included the Major championships as well as other events. Now that he is at the Masters, fans are excited to see him play once again.
"Tiger Woods is freaking back. Let's go," one fan wrote.
"I would love for him just to finish the match. So hard to see the Goat struggle," another fan wrote.
Some fans on the other hand think that Tiger Woods might not be able to sustain himself for another full tournament. They believe that he might end up withdrawing from the event once again.
