Thomas believes Tiger Woods will at least try for a comeback
Thomas disclosed that when home, he tried to go over and meet Woods 2-3 times a week. Generally, they did so on the pretext of letting their dogs spend some time together. And during these times, said JT, Woods is still the same ‘sarcastic a**hole’ that he always was, much chipper.

However, when asked whether a return to golf was a possibility for the 15-time major champion, JT was unsure. He said, “I don’t know. I mean, I know that he’s going to try. I just I don’t see, I don’t see him ever playing if he can’t play.” He explains by saying that unless Woods regains at least some of his old form again, he is not going to take on the circuit simply for the sake of it.
Speaking realistically and referring to his previous comeback, he adds, “There’s a pretty good chance that that might be the last chance he really ever had… but at the same time, I know how determined he is.”
🚨JT said on @NoLayingUp that he sees Tiger 2-3 times per week and that he’s doing well, being a dad, and a “sarcastic asshole” as always. Said he “doesn’t know” what his golf future holds but he’s “going to try.”
