By all indications, it looks like Tiger Woods will make his return to competitive golf for The Masters Tournament this weekend.
After traveling back and forth to Augusta National to test his surgically-repaired leg over the last couple of weeks, Tiger finally faced the media on Tuesday — where he said he should be playing this weekend.
“As of right now, I feel like I am going to play,” Woods said.

Tiger Woods has been sidelined since his scary single-car crash that threatened his leg just 15 months ago. And while many weren’t expecting him back to the PGA for a long time (or ever), he’s now gearing up to play the tournament that he’s made so many lasting memories.
But with all that being said, Tiger isn’t looking at this as a nostalgia opportunity. He was asked if he legitimately believes he can win the Masters given where he is with his ongoing rehab. True to form, Tiger Woods gave a simply answer:
“I do.”
