Tiger declares himself 'game-time decision' for Masters
Tiger Woods is officially trying to return to Augusta.
The legendary golfer declared himself a "game-time decision" to play at next week's Masters Tournament. It's been nearly 14 months since Woods suffered significant injuries to his lower extremities in a car accident.
I will be heading up to Augusta today to continue my preparation and practice. It will be a game-time decision on whether I compete. Congratulations to 16-year-old Anna Davis on an amazing win at the @anwagolf and good luck to all the kids in the @DriveChipPutt.

Woods reportedly played a practice round at Augusta last week, prompting speculation about a potential return. He played all 18 holes with his son, Charlie, and fellow pro Justin Thomas.
The 46-year-old hasn't played in an official PGA TOUR event since tying for 38th at the 2020 Masters with a score of 1-under.
Woods won his fifth Masters title in 2019 in miraculous fashion not long after returning from spinal fusion surgery. It was his first major win in over a decade and the 15th of his career.
