A little unusual to see Tiger Woods wearing FootJoy?

It is shocking to see Woods, who has been a Nike athlete for almost 25 years, now wear Footjoy shoes.

He had been wearing the Nike Air Zoom Tiger Woods golf shoes for quite some time now before he switched to Footjoy which came as a shock to many.

It can be a possibility that because he had suffered foot and ankle injuries in a car accident in February 2021, he might have felt the need to make the change. Although it’s hard to tell why he made the change to Footjoy, the shoes are giving him a high performance on the course.

The shoe has art-conscious with pebble grain leather and calfskin croc print accent in the saddle area. The shoe comes in several colors and styles, but the all black and all white are Tigers’ go-to choices.

Woods who is a 15-time major winner is all set for the 2022 PGA Championship as he has been reported as feeling at the top of his game and health. Do you think he can bag a win and mark his comeback to the tour in style?
