Every sport has that one player who disrupts everything and instantly becomes the athlete every other contender wants to beat. A perfect example of it is Tiger Woods. Woods has showcased an exemplary flair for the sport, relentlessly pioneering his way through the golfing world. Even after he sustained massive injuries due to his accident, Woods was able to come back with a bang. Even with his advanced age and injury complications, everyone expected him to perform with his usual excellence at this year’s Masters.

However, it seems like the golfer’s body isn’t in line with the goals he has in mind. After making the initial cut at the 2023 Masters, Woods cryptically hinted at being unable to play the next two rounds. Alas, it seems like disaster has struck. While some disheartening news has come to light, Woods’ fans took to Twitter to showcase their love for their idol. One of these fans was an ex-NFL player.
