Tiger Woods offers auspicious message, shows practice swings for first time since accident

Tiger Woods has scarcely been heard from since his serious February car accident but provided a completely positive update on Sunday from the range.

Since Tiger Woods was involved in the single car accident in February that caused him serious leg injuries, arguably the greatest golfer of all time has not been heard from all that often.

Perhaps the most frequently that the 45-year-old has been mentioned is in regards to his PGA Tour peers who have often mentioned Woods talking to them and sending them words of encouragement, especially around the time of the Ryder Cup. Outside of that, though, we haven’t gotten much about his progress or anything in that vein.

On Sunday, however, Woods got the golfing world buzzing as he posted a video of himself on the range hitting golf balls — and flushing it — with a simple message that sounds highly promising: Making progress.

Will Tiger Woods ever play on PGA Tour again?

From what we see in that video, Woods is clearly still recovering as he has some compression sleeve on his leg to increase blood flow. He’s also obviously not going at full throttle or anything close to that.

Having said that, Woods has reportedly told a number of people that he intends to try and make a comeback. That’s something that the message of “progress” that he posted with the accompanying video would certainly suggest as well.

We, of course, don’t know what that comeback will look like or when it will be. However, with the way Woods has talked whenever he’s said or shown us something since his accident, the expectation — even if it’s against the odds — would be that we’ll see the 15-time major champion on the golf course at some point again.
