Tiger Woods Leaves Masters Door Open, Says Recovery Still 'Good Days, Bad Days'

His latest comments came after he coached Jupiter Links into the TGL finals as he gauges whether his back will let him walk and compete at Augusta.

Overview

  • Told reporters he has "been working on it" and has not ruled out the 2026 Masters, noting variable days that sometimes make it hard to move.
  • He underwent lumbar disc replacement on Oct. 10, 2025 after rupturing his left Achilles in March 2025, contributing to an unpredictable recovery.
  • Jupiter Links advanced to the TGL finals over Boston Common, with Woods managing from the sideline and indicating he may keep the current lineup intact.
  • He said he has tried to play TGL matches without success so far, and his most recent PGA Tour start was the 2024 Open Championship after the 2024 PNC with his son.
  • A reported sighting of his private jet in Augusta fueled speculation, though coverage noted a plausible family reason tied to Charlie Woods’ junior event at nearby Sage Valley.
