When did Woods win his last major?

Woods’ last major win was the 2019 Masters, making it his fifth win at Augusta National. Interestingly, the Masters was also the very first tournament (1997) Woods clinched. Since then, Woods has gone on to win 14 more majors.

Despite multiple injuries in the second half of his career, Woods has always managed to bounce back. This time seems to be no exception, especially as there was less hope of his PGA Tour return.

Woods did play the PNC Championship with his son last year, coming in second. Unfortunately, it was not enough for a PGA Tour return just yet. This time, however, Woods seems sure of his health.

That being said, a victory at the 2022 Masters won’t be easy to achieve. Away from the tour for months, a return will be difficult for any golfer.

Do you think Woods can take home his 16th major win? Let us know in the comments below.
