Tiger Woods has no Answer for When He’ll Return to Golf

Woods will turn 40 this month and he comes in after playing in just 11 events this past season.

“If that’s all that entails, then it’s been a pretty good run”.

Players are required to play 15 PGA Tour events per season to retain membership, but the regular-season schedule has 37 weeks. What’s more? Woods also revealed that he mutes the volume so those “he is playing against can not hear who he is”. The latest procedures came after the same surgery in March past year.

Wishing my idol and friend a speedy recovery. Now that Kobe Bryant has announced he’s retiring from basketball, the pro golfer has been thinking long and hard about his own career, and HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned that he may be ready to walk away, too. He didn’t lead anyone on with false hopes of when he’ll come back, which is a depressing thought in itself.

He has already been named a vice-captain of the United States Ryder Cup team against Europe at Hazeltine next September. The current goal is simply to be healthy enough to play soccer with his two children.

True, Woods has been written off by a lot of people, but he never, ever used to sound like he was writing off himself, as he did at times during his press conference Tuesday.

“If I can get to that, then we can start talking about golf”, he said. I would like to be able to get to that first (bending over ).

“I’ve been in that situation before”, the Big Cat said ahead of the 2014 Deutsche Bank Championship about experts prematurely pronouncing his nine lives over.

Having spiralled to No. 400 less than two years after finishing 2013 at the top of the world rankings, Woods was melancholy – but realistic – about his condition. He was bidding for back-to-back tournament victories.

Fourteen-time major victor, Tiger Woods has not swung a golf club in almost four months.

This time, though, there really may be no light at the end of the tunnel, especially with Woods for the first time in his career essentially giving up on his quest to surpass Nicklaus’ mark.

“Another guy who’s about my age is Peyton Manning”, added Woods. Really good. I swear, that’s basically how I pass a lot of my time.

“But if that’s not the case any more, then I’ll find other avenues, that being growing my foundation, golf course design or other projects I have going on right now”. But I’m hoping that’s not it. I’m hoping that I can get back out here and compete against these guys.

Woods said he was inspired by how some of the other sporting greats overcome adversity and keep performing. “It takes a toll”.
