Fifteen-time major champion Tiger Woods has encouraged fans ahead of The Open and said he intends to play at St. Andrews despite concerns over the condition of his leg.
Woods played 36 holes at the JP McManus Pro-Am in Limerick this past weekend but used a buggy to get around Adare Manor on both days. The 46-year-old is fortunate to still be able to play after he was involved in a life-threatening car crash in February 2021.
It was confirmed at the time of the California crash that Woods had suffered numerous breaks and fractures to his right leg. That led to fears he would never play again at the top level, but the icon is insistent he remains able to do his in his current state.
