The most remarkable par by Woods

Meanwhile, he has even played some memorable and breathtaking shots in this event, along with tournament wins. And one such stroke is from the 1999 Memorial on the final day. Tiger was in the thick rough around the green. Meanwhile, Woods duffed his next shot as he tried to play a flop shot, as there was a severe slope towards the pond.

When will Tiger Woods play again?

We saw Tiger Woods at the 2022 PGA Championship. However, he struggled a lot with fitness as his injured leg during the recent solo car crash hasn’t recovered yet. Therefore, the 15-time major championship winner withdrew from the PGA Championship after round three. His pain and struggle while playing shots and walking were visible, especially in the second and third rounds. 

Meanwhile, we haven’t heard anything from Woods as of now, with the next major just around the corner. Furthermore, Tiger had already committed to the 150th Open at St. Andrews. Hence, he might take a break and recover well before going to Europe for the final major championship of the year.
