After a brief absence due to personal circumstances, the renowned golfer Tiger Woods is poised to make a comeback to the indoor golf course. He is slated to participate in the highly anticipated TGL match scheduled for this Tuesday at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens.
Woods, who was supposed to not only compete but also carry out hosting responsibilities at the upcoming Genesis Invitational this weekend, found himself facing a difficult decision. He made the tough choice to withdraw from the event, explaining that he was not emotionally ready to compete following the recent passing of his mother, Kultida, who sadly departed earlier this month at the age of 80.
Prior to the tournament, Woods took to social media to express his sentiments. “I had planned to participate this week, but I find myself not adequately prepared,” the golfer conveyed. “I made every effort to get ready, understanding that it’s what my Mom would have wanted, but I’m still coming to terms with her loss.”
Woods has confirmed that he will be teaming up with his colleagues from Jupiter Links GC, namely Tom Kim and Kevin Kisner, as they gear up to go head-to-head against Cameron Young, Rickie Fowler, and Matt Fitzpatrick representing the New York Golf Club.
