Tiger Woods still working towards PGA Tour return and featuring alongside Brooks Koepka
""Whenever that time comes, when I start hitting drivers and I start playing at home and start doing all the different things, I will have been away from the game for a year and a half so I will be very rusty. "There's a lot that goes into it, so my prep is going to have to be a little bit different from my other procedures I've had in the past. I've had to stay a lot more patient with myself. I get sore faster, I guess because I'm 50. And that happens.""
""The fan initiative program that we did last year was what they wanted, they want to see the best play against the best. And for Brooks to want to come back, a year early, and he was able to do that.""
""There's some punitive damages there, but it's a meritocracy; that's what makes our game so great," he said. "(Koepka is) going to play full-field events, and he has the ability to earn his way up to signature events. If he's good, he's good. If he plays great, he plays""
Tiger Woods is contemplating a return to the PGA Tour while recovering from lower-back disk replacement surgery performed in October. Rehabilitation progress has been slow and age-related recovery factors are slowing his pace; he is 50 and reports increased soreness. He has started hitting short- and mid-irons but has not yet used a driver. Woods expects rust after roughly a year and a half away from competition and plans a different preparation approach compared with previous comebacks. Woods welcomed Brooks Koepka's move back from LIV Golf and emphasized the Tour remains a meritocracy.
