The five-time Green Jacket winner didn’t make the greatest start to the tournament, shooting two-over par in the opening round. With pressure mounting over a delayed finish in the second round, Woods managed to score 73 to make it to the weekend.

However, his third round was nothing short of a disaster. The golf great visibly struggled in unfavorable conditions, hitting double bogeys to shoot an awful six-over par in the first seven holes.

But in a much-required respite for Woods, the play was halted again due to rain. The pause in the game could be a time for reflection, considering the golf great is nowhere near to clinching his sixth Masters title.

Do you think Woods will bite the bitter pill and withdraw himself from the tournament? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
