The 2022 Masters Tournament is set to tee off Thursday, April 7th, and there’s been more on everyone’s mind ahead of the First Round aside from who will bring home this year’s green jacket. This week, everyone’s needed to know — will Tiger Woods play in this year’s Masters?
Just over a year after sustaining severe injuries in a car accident, Woods has announced he’ll play in his first golf major since 2020. It’s a miraculous return for the golf legend, who noted in his recovery from the crash that he was “lucky to be alive and also have a limb.” Fans showed their gratitude for his return, filling out the crowd just to watch his practice Monday.
