Tiger Woods has been in the minds of all golf fans ever since he crashed his car and almost lost his right leg in 2021. The golf legend was in a pretty serious condition when taken to the hospital, and hasn’t been able to fully recover ever since his accident. And that has his true fans up at night thinking if he’d still be able to break records like he used to. Moreover, a recent concerning update about the golfer’s appearance on the field is bringing in all kinds of reactions from golf fans.

Fans react to Tiger Woods’ next potential tournament
