In 2014, he suffered from a back injury while playing in the final round of the Honda Classic, which disabled him from being a part of the Masters that year. He even withdrew himself from the tournament in 2016 just six days before the commencement due to the same prolonged back injury, and he did not appear the next year as well!
However, the worst was when, in 2021, just 90 minutes before the tournament was about to begin, Woods withdrew himself because of the injury to his right leg from the car accident. However, that’s not all. Woods’ journey has not been all sunshine and rainbows in Masters. He was involved in one of the biggest controversies in the history of golf!
In the 2013 Masters, Tiger Woods was led by a bad break, which resulted in a bad drop. Tiger Woods himself had posted a thread of tweets on his X account that, in the second round, he had taken an improper position in placing his ball on the 15th hole. Thus, his shot hit the pin and the ball bounced back into the water. He had scored a bogey on the par-5, but the score got changed into a triple bogey.
