Tiger Woods Addresses Future In Professional Golf After Car Accident

Don't count out Woods yet

Tiger Woods may be injured, but he isn't counting out a return to the links.

The 15-time major winner posted a video of himself on Nov. 21 with a golf club for the first time since his accident and Phil Mickelson didn't waste any time to issue a challenge to his friendly rival.

In an exclusive interview with Golf Digest's Henni Koyack, Woods addressed his future in the sport and what a potential return to the course would look like professionally.

"I think something that is realistic is playing the Tour one day -- never full-time, ever again -- but pick and choose, just like Mr. (Ben) Hogan did," Woods said. "It's an unfortunate reality, but it's my reality. I understand it and I accept it."

It's certainly sad that it seems like Woods will never be on the Tour full-time again, but to still be able and still have a chance to golf in the slightest is a blessing after his horrendous car wreck.

Woods winning the 2019 Masters was an incredible comeback in itself, but if the 45 year-old is able to win another Major title it may be the greatest comeback in sports history.
