Tiger Woods Lost A Season As Coronavirus Strikes

From the golfing world, everything revolves around Tiger Woods. These are the questions from which all other questions stream, and that is the way it should be when you’ve got an all time star like Woods still winning. Now, we’ve dovetailed the enormous Tiger questions with even larger questions of when exactly golf will begin again and what that might mean for Tiger as it does.

As of March 23, golf tournaments have been postponed or canceled through the end of May because of the effect of the coronavirus pandemic on the planet. The first possible tournament to function as the return of this game is that the Charles Schwab Challenge only a couple weeks before the U.S. We have not seen Woods because the Genesis Invitational in February.

What this signifies is that — in a best-case situation where golf re-started and Woods resurfaced at, say, the Memorial Tournament in June — we’ll have gone almost four Having a postponed Masters and PGA Championship and so long ambiguity because of the COVID-19 pandemic (and of course that the ambiguity of Woods’ health), we might be looking at possibly another lost season in a long series of these for Woods.

Since 2014, Woods has had only three years where he played all four major championships. Barring a minor miracle in the scheduling section, this won’t be a year where he plays all four major championships as it appears unlikely at this stage that all. Woods recently turned 44, and any missed shots at campuses in this stage of the game represent a vital blow to his campaign in raising his tally of 15, while my first reaction to the delay of the PGA Tour season was that this could be a fantastic thing for Woods, who missed the 1 round of the Players.

A frustrating — but definitely plausible — situation.

That would imply Woods will be 45 the next time he tees it up in a major, presumably the 2021 Masters. At 45, you are beginning to get into,”It has almost never happened” land and a spot where it is incredibly rare in the modern day. Only five golfers have won majors at age 45 or older. None have done so because Hale Irwin won the 1990 U.S. Open. Part of the reason behind this is because Woods ushered in a new age where players are better at a younger age and are now the largest threats to his pursuit.

Woods is unlike anybody who has ever played this game, but this is a tall task for him. So while Woods could be fully healthy (whatever that means for him) next time we see him, he’ll have probably missed out on a large chance to turn that 15 Based on when golf yields, the coronavirus could be yet another name you can add to the list of ever-growing competitions Woods has to conquer as his march for background persists.From the golfing world, everything revolves around Tiger Woods.
