A player like Tiger Woods never takes his golf game lightly. Hence, it should not come as a surprise that he even takes his footwear seriously. A Nike loyal for years, now, it looks like his choice of shoe has changed. At the 2022 Masters Tiger grabbed a lot of attention as he was spotted wearing FootJoy’s Premiere Series Packard shoes.

Woods was reported expressing that the 2022 Masters was an ”unbelievable feeling”. This is because he did not play competitive golf for almost 17 months before playing at the Masters.

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. As per golfmonthly.com, he was seen wearing a black pair on Sunday at the Masters and a white pair on Monday and Tuesday. 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.
