Sportsmen often inspire others with their performance on the field. The grace and determination with which they play are extremely captivating. But some greats, even after a bad game, can motivate others, and such was the case for Tiger Woods at the 2022 Masters.

The American legend inspired Jon Rahm, not by his performance but by the way he carried himself and his resolve on the course.

Woods inspires Rahm with his resolve

Despite his unfortunate accident early in 2021, the golf legend was determined to play the important games. He turned up for three of the majors this year. It was tough for the fans and the players to see Woods struggle because of the injuries he had suffered. But the 15-time major winner, with all he was going through, still managed to inspire the players.

At the Masters this year, Tiger was paired up with Jon Rahm in the final round. At the 7th hole, the duo was put on the clock, and Tiger “was somehow trying to speed up,” he said in a recent interview. The rest of the players looked at the officials, unimpressed. “He was already doing an amazing job trying to move up and down those hills,” said Rahm.

Jon, who was inspired by Tiger’s determination, said that walking the Augusta course was also one of the hardest walks in golf. He added that he and the other players saw the reality that the cameras didn’t, of how much of a toll it took on the legend. “He puts on a bit of a show for the camera, like he’s not going to show how much he’s really hurting,” said Rahm. “It’s really inspiring,” he added, seeing Tiger’s struggles and watching him “move around that room when there’s nobody watching.”

Tiger Woods withdrew from the Hero World Challenge

Just days ago, the 82-time PGA Tour winner pulled out of the unofficial PGA Tour event in the Bahamas. Tiger chose to stick to his hosting duties since he was experiencing problems walking. No doubt the course at Augusta, along with the other masters, had taken its toll.

The legend often mentions that he pushes himself to the limit, and that certainly catches up to him. He is suffering from “policeman’s heel” at the moment, which makes walking unbearable and hence playing on the course impossible.
