All signs point to Tiger Woods making his 26th career Masters appearance.
Five-time Masters winner Woods was spotted practicing golf at Augusta National club after flying in from Florida on Sunday (Monday AEST).
He was with his caddy, Lance Bennett, who worked with Woods at the Genesis Invitational in February.
Will Zalatoris, who played nine practice holes with Woods gave him a great reference. He played great.
He sometimes hit me so that there was a beeping sound. So you know, she looks amazing. He’s swinging as well as he can,” Zalatoris said With everything he’s been through, it’s incredible to see how well he’s doing.
Woods could make history this year if he gets his 24th straight cut at the Masters He currently shares the record with Gary Player and Fred Couples for 23 straight cuts, which he accomplished in 2023 before retiring with plantar fasciitis before the third round.
When asked if Woods’ chance of making 24- a straight cut “Broken his mind,” Zalatoris said. “That’s just all the guy did.”You can just sit and analyze the same stats throughout his career and put him in five different buckets and each of they will never be broken.
Spain’s Jon Rahm will defend his green jacket, which Woods last won in 2019 and won in 1997, 2001, 2002 and 2005..
