Tiger Woods Appears Frail at Son’s Florida Junior Championship

Tiger Woods made a rare public appearance at the 41st Nicklaus Junior Championship in Florida to support his 16-year-old son, Charlie Woods, who finished sixth in the tournament. Fans were shocked by Tiger's frail and visibly thinner legs, especially his surgically repaired right leg, fueling speculation about his ability to return to professional golf. Woods, 49, has faced significant health challenges in recent years, including a near-fatal car accident in 2021, six back surgeries, and a ruptured Achilles tendon that required surgery in 2025. Despite these setbacks, he remains actively involved in his son's budding golf career, often seen walking courses and offering support. While he has not played in a PGA Tour event since missing the cut at The Open in July 2024, Woods participated in the indoor TMRW Golf League earlier this year. His current physical condition and ongoing recovery suggest that a full comeback to competitive golf remains uncertain.
