Tiger Woods appeared in only five events this year. The Open Championship in July was the last time he teed off, where he missed the cut. He had assured about appearing at the PNC Championship in December referring to it as the fifth major for him. However, things might have taken a turn for him. The 15x major winner went through lumbar spine surgery in September, making it his sixth back surgery. The surgery was successful, and he is hopeful to get back at golf quickly, but it surely will require him some time. Now, this surgery has made his…

Tiger Woods Spoiled Soccer Star Harry Kane’s Family Time in the Bahamas: ‘Said Sorry [To My Wife]’ Harry Kane is one of the most prolific goal-scorers in soccer. After spending the majority of his career with the English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, he moved to the Bundesliga last year. He had an immediate impact at Bayern Munich F.C. scoring 36 goals in the league in his first season. As impactful as he is, he hasn’t had much taste of championship glory. He probably achieved his greatest achievement for the Spurs by becoming the runner-up in the Champions League. While…

82 PGA Tour wins. 15 major victories. Imagine the kind of golfing advice someone like Tiger Woods would be able to give you. Invaluable! That is exactly how Max Homa felt when he got help from the legend. However, if the golfer was at the receiving end of it before a certain point in time, then the 48-year-old would have ‘killed him’ while helping him out. What changed, then? Well, it all happened after Charlie Woods entered the picture, interestingly so. Homa was talking about how he received Woods’s advice in an episode of the Join The Lobby podcast, hosted by FaZe…

The 2024 Hero World Challenge field includes bigwigs but not that one name fans were eager to see the most. Five of the world’s top ten, led by the Masters champion and reigning world no.1, Scottie Scheffler, will travel to the Bahamas in December.

Eldrick Tont “Tiger” Woods is most widely considered to be the greatest golfer of all time. The American golfer holds many of the most impressive titles in the game, with groundbreaking achievements and a resume that stacks up against any golfer on most every metric over time.

If you want to know how much Tiger is enjoying being here in this hallowed place, how much it means after all he went through, it was all there as he savaged those in…
