Tiger Woods Confirms What We All Suspected All Along
Transcript
00:00Tiger Woods has made a name for himself as one of the best, if not the best, golfer ever to live.
00:06Unfortunately, his continued success in the sport was in serious doubt in February,
00:11after Woods suffered a horrible car crash in California. The crash took place in the early
00:16morning, and Woods suffered several injuries, with his legs taking the brunt of the impact.
00:21A post on his Twitter account featured a quote from Dr. Anish Mahajan, which reads in part,
00:27Mr. Woods suffered significant orthopedic injuries to his right lower extremity that
00:31were treated during emergency surgery by orthopedic trauma specialists.
00:36In May, Tiger opened up about the incident for the first time with Golf Digest,
00:40revealing that it had been a long and painful recovery so far. Woods told the outlet,
00:45This has been an entirely different animal. I understand more of the rehab processes
00:50because of my past injuries, but this was more painful than anything I have ever experienced.
00:55In a November 29, 2021 interview with the magazine, the champ spoke out about his
01:00post-accident career for the first time, and he didn't hold much back. Woods said,
01:04I can still participate in the game of golf. I can still, if my leg gets okay,
01:09I can still click off a tournament here or there. But as far as climbing the mountain again and getting
01:13all the way to the top, I don't think that's a realistic expectation of me.
01:17Unfortunately for Tiger fans, the golfer knows that his career will never be the same as it once was.
01:23He told Golf Digest,
01:24I think something that is realistic is playing the tour one day, never full-time, ever again,
01:29but pick and choose just like Mr. Ben Hogan did. Pick and choose a few events a year,
01:33and you play around that. He also shared that while it's an unfortunate reality,
01:37he knows that it's his reality, adding,
01:40And I understand it, and I accept it. Luckily, Woods seems to have a good mentality,
01:44and he's seemingly accepted this outcome, which is one of the hardest parts.
01:48Tiger Woods may not have had his career start winding down in the way he envisioned,
01:52but he's just grateful to be alive. In one of his first press conferences since
01:57suffering his devastating leg injury, Woods revealed,
02:00I'm lucky to be alive and also have a limb.
02:03The golf great also shared that there was a time that he thought his leg would have to be amputated,
02:08but thanks to the hard work that he put in, he was able to avoid it.
02:11Just to be immobile for three months, just lay there, and I was just looking forward to just
02:18getting outside.
02:19Woods continued to say,
02:21That was a goal of mine, especially for a person who lived his entire life outside,
02:25that was a goal.
02:26Woods is not expected to be a full-timer on the PGA Tour Junket, but he still tries to play as
02:31often as he's able, even though his game isn't the same as it once was. He said,
02:36To see some of my shots fall out of the sky a lot shorter than they used to is a little eye-opening,
02:40but at least I'm able to do it again.
02:42Fans of Tiger Woods are thrilled that he's back in the game,
02:45even though it may not be in the same capacity as it once was.
02:49In late November, the golfer shared a photo of himself sitting in a golf cart and smiling
02:53for the camera to Instagram. He wrote,
02:55Looking forward to a great week at Albany for the Hero World Challenge.
03:00Within seconds, fans flocked to the comments section to welcome Woods back with open arms.
03:05One of the biggest brands in golf, TaylorMade, commented, quote,
03:08Well, this just made our day. Several other fans simply dropped a line to welcome him back.
03:13Looking great, boss, one fan exclaimed. Another wrote, quote,
