Absolutely Huge Crowd Shows Up To See Tiger Tee It Off in Practice Round At Masters

The Tiger buzz is getting louder by the day.

The PGA legend is preparing at Augusta National Golf Club before deciding whether he’ll compete at this year’s Masters Tournament. Signs are pointing to him likely giving it a go come this Thursday.  If things go well this week, odds are Tiger will tee off trying to  win another Major Championship. 

Prior to his final decision, Tiger still needs to get in some practice rounds, and today was a big test.

The crowds showed up in droves to see Tiger at the tee box.  See the enormous crowd below:

A practice round on Monday of the Master's… No one is more polarizing to their sport than Tiger is to golf. That's insane. https://t.co/R3SLdZuvd1

The ratings instantly go up the minute Tiger plays in any tournament. He’s the biggest sports star in the world, and it goes to show you just how much he’s loved. That’s an insane amount of people for a Monday at Augusta.
