Tiger Woods is a master in the art of communication. It’s nothing new, but the last few days it has been screaming. The Tiger, victim of a serious road accident a little over nine months ago, first set the web ablaze with a simple video on November 21. He, from whom we had only seen a few images stolen on crutches, had not given the slightest official sign of life since his crash. His close friends on the Tour, Justin Thomas in the lead, hinted here and there that Woods was keeping his spirits up during this convalescence.

But the silence surrounding the man of 15 years old remained deafening. In a single swing posted on his social networks, soberly captioned ” making progress “(In progress), the Tiger gave food to his army of fans and accumulated 3.7 million views on Instagram alone …
A few days later, exactly the week of the Hero World Challenge, of which he is the host, Tiger Woods (45) confided in Golf Digest at length. In a zoomed-in interview, he appeared fit, smiling and almost affable. The Tiger thus confided for the first time on this new convalescence and on his very selective golfing trend future.
The evoked amputation
Then the day after this first round of communications, Woods appeared in front of an audience of reporters ahead of the Hero World Challenge. Once again it was about his long period of convalescence, his doubts about a future golfing at the highest level and this leg whose amputation has even been mentioned (” it was on the table He shot straight in the eye). Woods also carefully avoided any question relating to his accident, referring to the police reports, so circulate there’s nothing to do.
At the practice with the red polo shirt
And the communication did not stop there since, throughout the tournament, Woods was seen in a corner of the driving range hitting balls, even with the traditional red polo shirt on Sunday on the last lap. In itself, encouraging news which confirms how well the Tiger’s rehabilitation is on track. It is even rumored that the former world No. 1 would be in the process of responding to the next PNC Championship associated with his son Charlie. A place would thus be reserved for the duo Woods.
In just a few weeks, Tiger Woods got back to the forefront of a stage he had left in barrels and on a stretcher. If it seems unlikely to see him again at the start of the next Masters in April 2022, Woods’ future golf course is no longer as dark as this accident suggested.
