What event for Tiger Woods now? He told about what will happen after the Augusta Masters 2022: "I am looking forward to St Andrews. That is something that is near and dear to my heart. I've won two Opens there, it's the Home of Golf, it's my favourite golf course in the world so I will be there for that one.
Anything in between that, I don't know. I will try, there's no doubt. Like this week I will try and get ready for Southern Hills and we'll see what this body is able to do. I don't think people really understand. The people who are close to me understand.
They've seen it. Some of the players who are close to me have seen it and have seen some of the pictures and the things that I have had to endure. I've won two Opens there, it's the Home of Golf, it's my favourite golf course in the world so I will be there for that one.
They appreciate it probably more than anyone else because they know what it takes to do this out here at this level. It's one thing to play with my son at a hit-and-giggle but it's another thing to play in a Major Championship.
It's been a tough road and one that I'm very thankful to have the opportunity to be able to grind through it. A lot of different things could have happened, but 14 months, I'm able to tee it up and play in the Masters. We're excited about the prospects of the future, about training, about getting into that gym and doing some other stuff to get my leg stronger, which we haven't been able to do because it needed more time to heal.
I think it needs a couple more days to heal after this but we'll get back after it and we'll get into it."
Tiger's career
Tiger Woods was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and thanked his family for their success.
In five seasons, from 1999 to 2003, he won 32 tournaments in 101 appearances. Between 2005 and 2009 he won 31 out of 75. He was Nominated Player of the Year ten times and as many finished at the top of the money list. Tiger Woods is one of only five golfers in history to have won the Grand Slam in addition to having won 15 Majors and collected a total of 82 successes.
In 2014 he became the first sportsman in the world to have broken the billion dollar barrier. Astronomical figure that also justifies the fact that Tiger Woods can afford a yacht like the Privacy, a real fairytale boat. And obviously we are talking about something that has cost a lot.
Tiger Woods has won 110 professional tournaments, including 15 majors, in his multi-decade career, making him the most successful player in history. He held the top spot in the world rankings for a total of 683 weeks, including 281 consecutive weeks, and is the only golfer to have won all four major tournaments of the modern era in a single year.
In 2014 he became the first sportsman in the world to have exceeded a billion dollars in earnings from various sponsors. In 2019, President Donald Trump awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States of America.
On February 23, 2021, he is involved in a car accident in Los Angeles and suffers numerous fractures in his legs.
