AUGUSTA, April 2 ― Injured Tiger Woods thrilled golf fans with a mere practice round at Augusta National, but other elite golfers who have competed since November 2020 definitely will try to win the 86th Masters.
He was listed among the field on the tournament website, but had not confirmed as of yesterday whether he would play in next week's Masters, which will mark the 25th anniversary of his first triumph there. However, the prospect of a Woods comeback overshadowed the certainty of players seeking a green jacket who have been competing for months.
“It was good to be there, good to see the place. I feel like I've already done most of my work, which is a nice feeling. For the most part, my game feels good.” “You just can't make as many mistakes. When you do make mistakes, they're just that blown up when you're out on a major course, especially on a Sunday and you feel that pressure. You know what's at stake.”
