Tiger Woods Walks 36 Holes, Impresses at PNC Championship with Son
  • For the first time since his 2021 car accident, Tiger Woods voluntarily walked all 36 holes of the PNC Championship, a significant step in his recovery.

  • During a practice round leading up to the tournament, Woods described his game as 'rusty,' admitting to struggles with trajectory and shot shaping.

  • Despite his self-criticism, Woods showcased impressive play throughout the tournament, highlighted by a dramatic shot on the par-5 14th hole that reached a remarkable 173 mph ball speed, setting up an eagle opportunity.

  • Woods and his son, Charlie, came close to winning the Willie Park Trophy, finishing with a tournament record-tying score of 28 under par.

  • However, they ultimately fell to Bernhard and Jason Langer in a playoff, with Woods acknowledging that he is not yet in competitive shape but relishing the camaraderie of the event.

  • Looking ahead, Woods has nearly two months to prepare for his next potential tournament at the Genesis Invitational, where he will again need to walk without the option of a cart.
