Tiger Woods is hemming and hawing about playing The Masters this week but for him to even be thinking about it is remarkable.

Woods suffered devastating leg injuries in a car crash in Los Angeles in February 2021. The only small dose of competition he’s had on the course this year was when he participated in the PNC Championship with his son Charlie. Woods was spotted landing at Augusta, Georgia, last week, sparking speculation of his possible return to competitive play. He even tweeted it would be a "game-time decision."

"I will be heading up to Augusta today to continue my preparation and practice. It will be a game-time decision on whether I compete," he wrote in a tweet on Sunday.

He was on the course on Sunday afternoon, driving the ball and giving the difficult course a shot.

Golfer Billy Horschel gave a good report on how Woods looked on the course.

"He looked good to me," former FedExCup champion Billy Horschel, who watched Woods hit balls Sunday afternoon, said via PGATour.com. "He looked like the Tiger we saw before the accident … the way the swing looked and the speed."

Horschel said he and the fellow competitors are just "giddy" over the fact that Woods is at Augusta in the days leading up to the tournament.
