Tiger Woods' future is always a big unknown, just like this time. The 49-year-old golfer has been absent from the golf courses for most of the season due to injuries that have been following him. However, golf fans hoped that Tiger could be a more frequent competitor in major tournaments this year. However...
In an interview with the media a few days ago, Tiger Woods put special emphasis on the death of his mother.
Kultida Woods, Tiger's mother, passed away a few weeks ago, which is also one of the reasons why the experienced golfer has not appeared at some of the events.
In an interview with Sports Illustrated, the 49-year-old stressed that he is still not ready to practice, especially after the death of his mother. Tiger is focused on many things, but golf does not seem to be one of them.
"This is the third time I've touched a club since my mom passed, so I haven't really gotten into it. My heart is really not into practicing right now. I've had so many other things to do with the Tour and trying to do other things."-Tiger Woods said, as quoted by The Japan Times.
Tiger Woods talks about his return
The popular golfer pointed out that he is ready to return to golf courses when he feels better. Some take his statements as if Tiger has lost his passion for golf, but things seem far from that. The latest events in his life are the reason why the star of this sport is still not thinking about returning, but the most important thing is that he looks optimistically into the future.
"Once I start probably feeling a little bit better and start getting into it, I'll start looking at the schedule."- he concluded.
The Player Championship is the next tournament on the calendar, and it is now clear that Woods will not perform at this prestigious event
