Tiger Woods is once again making the headlines as he made an incredible comeback at the 2021 PNC Championship. He competed in the family event alongside his son, Charlie Woods. Moreover, they finished runners-up for the event as team Daly won the event with a score of -27. 

At PNC Championship, Tiger Woods looked in brilliant touch, especially on the final day. He was hitting darts with his irons and even made a few clutch putts. However, Tiger has made it clear that he still needs a bit of time before competing on the PGA Tour, as walking 72 holes is still a strenuous task for him.
