Will Tiger Break Jack’s record? I might break your jaw if you ask that question one more time…
In what’s becoming an all-too-familiar storyline in the legendary career of Tiger Woods, the 15-time major champion has undergone another surgery—this time for a ruptured left Achilles tendon.
Woods shared via social media today that he experienced “sharp pain” while ramping up his training regimen at home. Dr. Charlton Stucken at the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach performed a “minimally-invasive” repair procedure, which reportedly “went smoothly.”
This latest setback adds another chapter to Tiger’s lengthy medical history, which already includes multiple back surgeries, knee procedures, and his recovery from the devastating 2021 car accident that nearly ended his career.
The timing couldn’t be worse with The Masters just weeks away. Golf fans hoping to see Tiger make another appearance at Augusta will likely have to wait until 2026, as Achilles injuries typically require 6-12 months for full recovery.
Woods is now back home focusing on recovery and rehabilitation. While no timeline has been announced for his return to competition, one thing remains certain—counting out Tiger Woods has always been a fool’s errand.
We wish the Big Cat a speedy recovery and will update when more details become available.
