Tiger Woods Worries Fans As Limp Worsens During Heavy Rain At Masters
Tiger Woods made the cut after the second round of the 2023 Masters on Saturday, but worried fans when his limp visibly became worse while heavy rain poured down at Augusta National Golf Club.
Woods, 47, has been struggling with pain in his right leg ever since he got into a car accident in February 2021.
He played The Masters last year and this one is looking like his final tournament before calling it quits for good.
It’s unclear whether or not Woods will even be able to finish the third round at Augusta, but he has already shown a fighting spirit that is more than inspiring.
Still, fans took to social media to express their concern over Woods’ health, stating that it’s hard to watch his fall from the mountaintop.

He secured the last ticket to the third round and then the heavy rain seemed to affect Woods’ leg, which took a toll on his game.
Woods finished the day, which was suspended due to the poor weather conditions, at +6 for the round and +9 in total. Whatever happens moving forward doesn’t matter. He has already done more than enough to make sure that golf will always remember him.
