According to his post, the golfer would be able to tell whether or not he would be playing at the first-ever major of the year. Since the field list, including Tiger’s name, was released on the Masters Tournament official website, people have been speculating whether he would play or not. However, he had neither confirmed nor denied the possibility of him playing there.
According to a source, Woods has already practiced at the Augusta Nationals with his son Charlie and fellow golfer Justin Thomas. The source told ESPN after the practice, “He looked good to me.”

If he plays great. He has zero chance of being competitive. If he truly plays only to win then he won’t play because there is no chance he can win or even compete. Top 20 would be great but more than likely top 40. 2020 Masters he finished 19 shots behind DJ btw
