The much-awaited Masters’ Tournament is about to begin in a week! And it could be the event that Tiger Woods would make his comeback. Ever since the news has spread, everyone has been talking about it, and former NBA star Charles Barkley also shared his opinion.

“When I started hearing the stuff, uh, it was exciting,” Barkley said. He shared his thoughts on Woods’ comeback at the Masters on the Dan Patrick Show. “I don’t know if he can win, but it would be fun to see him there,” the former NBA player said. 

“I mean if he win it like, it would be the greatest sports story ever,” He further added. “If he just makes the cut, it’ll be an incredible story.” 

However, what seemed to be surprising was that when stating his opinion, he seemed to have forgotten Micheal Jordan. Michael Jordan won a three-peat, retired from the NBA, then un-retired to conquer the league once again. MJ won six titles in a span of eight years.

While this is considered one of the greatest achievements in history, his friend Charles Barkley seems to have forgotten to bring it up when discussing the greatest sporting comebacks.

Is Tiger Woods making a comeback at the 2022 Masters? 

The 2022 Masters official field list includes Woods’ name. However, the golfer hasn’t confirmed whether he will be playing at the Augusta or not. However, he is at the Augusta Nationals right now as he and his son Charlie landed there in their private jet recently.

Woods’ history at the Masters

From 1995 to 2020, Tiger Woods has competed 23 times at the Augusta Nationals. Woods won his first-ever Masters in 1997, his second-ever appearance as a professional golfer. Moreover, the then 21-year-old Tiger had won the event with a massive 12-shot lead. 

Ever since then, he has won four more Masters, the last being the 2019 event. His one-shot lead win at the event made him the golfer with second-most wins at the Augusta. He is one win short of leveling with Jack Nicklaus’ 6 win record. 

Only time can tell whether Woods will make a comeback at the Masters or not. However, with his history at the event, do you think he would choose it as his comeback event?
