Tiger Woods hasn’t seen “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” yet, but he really wants to.

Woods wrote a lengthy blog post Tuesday on his website, which mostly served as a reflection on 2015 and what he hopes to accomplish in 2016. But, with “Star Wars” mania stretching across the world, Woods also weighed in on the movie everyone is talking about.

“I want to go see the new ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens,'” he wrote. “I was a total geek growing up and had ‘Star Wars’ wallpaper in my room. My kids love it, too.”

Speaking of awakenings, Woods could use one in his golf game right about now. The 14-time major winner’s future in the sport is up in the air due to injuries, which he addressed in part in his blog post.

“The thing I’m looking forward to the most about 2016 is getting back out there again,” he wrote. “I’ve missed it, and I would like to do it pain-free. I haven’t done that in what seems like a long time. I’ve had it in spurts the last few years and have done some pretty good things, but I’d like to have sustained health.”

He added: “Where do I see myself in the next five to 10 years? I am still playing golf at the highest level and winning tournaments and major championships.”
