Hole by hole today:
Tiger Woods’ long-awaited opportunity to play the Old Course at St. Andrews — host of the 2022 Open Championship — is finally here.
Normally, he would have had to wait five years for the Open Championship to return to his favorite course in golf. In 2020, when the Open Championship was supposed to return to St. Andrews, the tournament was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Leg Injury:
Tiger Woods’ recovery from a gruesome leg injury — one that prompted doctors to consider amputation — this year seems more impressive considering a recently released photo of the legendary golfer.
Woods, 46, — who played in the Masters and PGA Championship, but skipped the U.S. Open — attended a junior golf event over the weekend to watch his son, Charlie.
Just two years later, he will make the most of what could be his last real chance to add a fourth Claret Jug to his collection.
Real name:
His real name is Eldrick Tont Woods
Woods leads all active golfers in career major wins and career PGA Tour wins.
Woods’s first name, Eldrick, was chosen by his mother because it began with “E” (for Earl) and ended with “K” (for Kultida). His middle name Tont is a traditional Thai name. He was nicknamed Tiger in honor of his father’s friend, South Vietnamese Colonel Vuong Dang Phong, who had also been known as Tiger.
