このコンテンツについて
Tiger Woods held his first public appearance in months on Tuesday at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, delivering significant updates on both his health situation and his influential role reshaping professional golf's future.
The 15-time major champion underwent his seventh back surgery in October, replacing a disc that caused chronic pain and mobility issues. He also required surgery earlier this year to repair a ruptured left Achilles tendon. During his press conference, Woods revealed he was cleared to chip and putt just last week, six weeks after the procedure. He emphasized that recovery is progressing slower than he'd like but remains committed to the rehabilitation process, which now includes gradually increasing gym work and rotational exercises while allowing the disc to properly set.
On his competitive return, Woods declared himself "a ways away" from any meaningful timeline. He confirmed he will miss both the PNC Championship with his son later this month and the opening portion of the TGL indoor league season, though he expressed hope of potentially competing at the TGL's season end around March. Without a specific return date, Woods stressed he's simply focused on getting back to playing golf again before committing to any schedule.
As the 49-year-old approaches his 50th birthday on December 30th, he becomes eligible for PGA Tour Champions, which could provide an easier competitive pathway with three-round tournaments and golf cart usage. He joked about playing 25 events on both tours but acknowledged the reality remains murky.
Beyond his personal recovery, Woods is deeply engaged as chairman of the PGA Tour's Future Competition Committee, working under new CEO Brian Rolapp to implement sweeping changes by 2027. The committee has held three meetings and consulted extensively with title sponsors, tournament directors, marketing executives, and media partners. Major proposals under consideration include starting the season after the Super Bowl to avoid NFL competition and potentially reducing the primary schedule to around 20 events from the current 33 consecutive weeks.
Woods emphasized that these changes could create a "financial windfall" for everyone involved, from players with tour equity stakes to sponsors and media rights holders. He described starting with a blank slate, throwing out roughly a thousand ideas, then building upon stakeholder feedback to create what he believes will be a "far better product" than currently exists. While 2027 is the target timeline, Woods acknowledged uncertainty about whether they'll hit that deadline.
