Tiger Woods faces a “suspension” for undisclosed reasons following a controversial incident.
Tiger Woods is facing a “suspension” after demonstrating his pitching skills by throwing the ball towards fans. What could possibly motivate him to do that?
After finishing his final practice round for The Masters on Tuesday, Tiger Woods demonstrated his throwing skills.
In a video posted by the NFL on Wednesday morning, a fan raised his hands as if to provide Woods with a target for tossing the golf ball after finishing his round. The spectator was positioned several yards away amidst a crowd of fans.
Nonetheless, Woods willingly complied and tossed the ball towards his target.
Another man attempted to jump in front to intercept the pass. The ball first deflected off the intended target’s hands as those nearby readied themselves to catch a loose ball.
However, despite a minor slip-up, the ball ultimately landed with the intended catcher as the crowd erupted in cheers.
Woods is heading back to Augusta with hopes of claiming his sixth green jacket. Following impressive practice rounds on Monday and Tuesday, the golf legend displayed resilience despite facing numerous physical challenges.
“If everything falls into place, I believe I can secure another Green Jacket,” he stated during a press conference.
Woods is a year post-ankle surgery, which limited him to just 24 holes of competitive golf this year. He expressed his desire to gradually return to form but recognized the physical challenges he faces four months after turning 48.
He confessed at a Tuesday press conference, “Regarding my physical ability on certain shots, every shot that isn’t from the tee box poses a challenge. Starting each hole is somewhat challenging.”
“The body has moments when it just flares up. The training we need to do at home varies daily; some days I feel good, while other days not as much.”
Although accomplishing this feat won’t be easy for Woods, he’s well-acquainted with defying the odds in Augusta. In 2019, at age 43, he became the second oldest golfer to secure a Masters victory.
