Tiger Woods’ Masters comeback causes family disbelief – ‘It shouldn’t be happening’
TIGER WOODS’ family are just as shocked as the rest of the golfing world, after the American made a heroic comeback at last week’s Masters.
Following the accident it was feared that the golfing great may never compete again due to the severity of his injuries, with Woods later revealing amputation of his leg was ‘on the table’ after being admitted to hospital. Remarkably though, 14 months later the 82-time PGA Tour winner was able to make his comeback at Augusta National, a course he has enjoyed so much success on down the years.
His comeback no doubt came as a surprise in the build-up to the event, with Woods keeping any updates on his rehabilitation extremely close to his chest. However it turns out the fans were not the only ones surprised, with his daughter Sam also left in disbelief.
She said: “It’s miraculous. It shouldn’t be happening.” Woods himself discussed the ‘long road’ he had endured to get himself back to competitive fitness, and feels people don’t ‘understand’ exactly what he had been through to get back to Augusta National
He said: “It’s been a tough road and one I’m very thankful to have had the opportunity to be able to grind through it. A lot of different things could have happened, but after 14 months I’m able to tee it up and play the Masters. I don’t think people really understand.
