AUGUSTA, GEORGIA - APRIL 04: Tiger Woods of the United States plays his shot from the third tee during a practice round prior to the 2023 Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club on April 04, 2023 in Augusta, Georgia. AFPPIX: Tiger Woods admitted Tuesday he wonders each time he plays the Masters if it's his last competing at Augusta National, where he has won five of his 15 major titles.
Woods made his competitive comeback at last year's Masters, when he shared 47th but achieved a major feat simply by finishing 72 holes.“Last year, I didn’t know if I was going to play again at that time. For some reason everything kind of came together and I pushed it a little bit and I was able to make the cut, which was nice.”
“My game is better than it was last year,“ Woods said. “I think my endurance is better. But it aches a little bit more than it did last year just because I really had not pushed it that often. Woods took his first major victory since 2008 at the 2019 Masters, capping a shock comeback after spinal fusion.
“It has been tough and will always be tough. The ability and endurance of what my leg will do going forward will never be the same. That’s why I can’t prepare and play as many tournaments as I like.Asked about his key to overcoming adversity, Woods summed it up in one word.
