The golfer has broken millions of hearts with his massive announcement. The golf ace has been visibly struggling from his leg injuries for a long time now. And walking for four days straight at a course as huge as Augusta is a challenge in itself.

Woods had been working on bettering his shots for a long time. And according to some of his fellow PGA Tour players, he was in his best form swinging-wise. But the limp in his walk had been a serious concern for the past few tournaments that he had played.

And his fans are currently throwing in similar assumptions as reasons for his sudden withdrawal. While others said it was no surprise for them since they could see the GOAT struggling throughout his game. Here is what some of them had to say:
