There was a time when beating Tiger Woods on the course was considered a bigger achievement than winning an event. His skills, abilities, and hard work were second to none, and he absolutely dominated the PGA Tour circuit for over a decade. But after multiple accidents, severe injuries, serious surgeries, and a lot of pain, Woods is only a shadow of his former self today. So when he was asked about the quality of his game at present, he was humble enough to face the truth and mock it.

In a video for the Jupiter Links Golf Club on YouTube, Will Lowery shot quickfire questions to Woods about his career experience. He asked about the big cat’s favorite golf course, players, and many other memories from his past. At one point, Lowery inquired what the 82-time PGA Tour champion’s golf ball would say about him if it could talk. Perplexed about the question, Woods gave it a moment’s thought before telling the host, “Now? You start laughing!”

The two had a good laugh before Lowery confirmed, “So, LOL’s?” Woods replied, “Right now, yes!” His honest and hilarious take about his game right now showed that Tiger has accepted the reality of the present. It might be the fact that he knows competing with the top players after so many health troubles would be quite challenging. Or he might understand that his game is not at its best as he is recovering from his 7th lower back surgery from a few days ago.

Either way, Tiger Woods has certainly fallen far from his best years. Whether he will be able to regain his prolific abilities once he recovers is yet to be seen. But as things stand, it is not telling even if he will ever consider making a return to the professional circuit. However, there are those who believe that fans have already seen the last of Woods after his recent surgery. Let’s see what they had to say.

Has Tiger Woods fallen too far off the ladder?

Only a few days ago, reports of Tiger Woods hitting a new career low had come to the surface. The former world #1 had dropped to the worst OWGR ranking of his career. He was outside the top 2000 golfers in the world, sitting at #2084. That really caught the attention of the fans as they wished him the best health, but also called for him to stop pursuing professional golf. Well, Johnson Wagner thinks that he might never make a return.

The former PGA Tour pro-turned-analyst told Trey Wingo, “I’m going to say this: I don’t think we’ll ever see him play in another major championship. He’s always been the guy that said he’s not going to be a ceremonial golfer. I just don’t see a world where we see him play in the Masters again. It makes me very sad. I just think his body is just beaten down, and I don’t think he can do it anymore.” That is the common belief in the golf community that Tiger Woods’s days as the top dog (or cat) or done. But he has proven everyone wrong before. Can he do it one more time?
