The Masters tournament kicks off today, and it just feels different without Tiger Woods walking through Augusta National. The PGA legend is still recovering from a single-car crash that left him with multiple different scary injuries.

While Tiger might not be competing this week, his close friend Justin Thomas is one of the favorites to take home the highly coveted Green Jacket. Thomas has been in touch with Tiger Woods throughout his recovery, and even got a message from him prior to teeing off this weekend.
“When things are going well, you need to go figure it out. No offense to your dad, no offense to your caddie, you need to go out by yourself,” Woods told Thomas. “You’re a grown man, figure it out.”
As Justin Thomas was trying to find his way through a difficult few months, Tiger Woods gave him some simple advice that went a long way. An excerpt from our feature on JT, who tees off today at 1:48 pm EST: pic.twitter.com/wXOdAbs3IL

That advice is so Tiger Woods that it’s hard for me not to get pumped up a little bit. Forget everyone else, forget the noise, play your game. Tunnel vision. This is how and why Tiger Woods has had his best moments at the biggest stages.
We need Tiger Woods back in the game of golf at some point. Hopefully he can make a full recovery.
