In a scene right out of a horror movie (or \u201cHome Alone\u201d), gruesome new details about Tiger Woods\u2019 injuries have surfaced and added painful new context to his latest withdrawal from a major championship.<\/p>\n
To wit, Woods<\/a> withdrew from the Masters<\/a> tournament last weekend.<\/p>\n Woods made the withdrawal announcement on Twitter on Sunday morning, citing a past plantar fasciitis injury flaring back up.<\/p>\n I am disappointed to have to WD this morning due to reaggravating my plantar fasciitis. Thank you to the fans and to @TheMasters<\/a> who have shown me so much love and support. Good luck to the players today!<\/p>\n \u2014 Tiger Woods (@TigerWoods) April 9, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n\n \u201cI am disappointed to have to [withdraw] this morning due to reaggravating my plantar fasciitis,\u201d Woods<\/a> tweeted on Sunday morning, right before the tournament was to resume after an inclement weather delay. \u201cThank you to the fans and to @TheMasters who have shown me so much love and support. Good luck to the players today!\u201d<\/p>\n (Spain\u2019s Jon Rahm won the whole thing.)<\/p>\n Woods\u2019 withdrawal announcement came on the heels of a viral video making the rounds on social media. That video showed a visibly pained Woods struggling to even walk while dealing with the inclement weather at the Masters:<\/p>\n Tiger Woods.

In May, he pulled out of the PGA Championship<\/a> in Oklahoma over injury woes.<\/p>\n Now, fans are learning, that May withdrawal was due to an absolutely stomach-churning injury: A surgical screw had punctured his skin.<\/p>\n Fellow PGA golfer Jason Day recounted the gruesome detail to the Golf Channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI was talking to [Woods] at the end of last year, and then he was saying the reason why he pulled out of the PGA [Championship] was a screw went through the skin on Saturday or whatever it was,\u201d Day said.<\/p>\n Once that gruesome detail had been revealed, Woods\u2019 biggest fans flocked to social media in nigh awe.<\/p>\n One Twitter user wanted to know who operated on Tiger \u2014 perhaps to avoid said surgeon just in case:<\/p>\n Who in the world is operating on Tiger??? That\u2019s crazy!!! Hope this wasn\u2019t his last #Masters<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2014 Kendal Eschbach (@KendalEschbach) April 9, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n\n \u201cWho in the world is operating on Tiger??? That\u2019s crazy!!!\u201d the Twitter user exclaimed.<\/p>\n Another Twitter user decided that \u201cThis man is not human<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n Of course, not everyone was in awe. Some of Woods\u2019 online detractors slammed these stories as fabricated excuses<\/a> meant to cover for Woods\u2019 overall struggles in golf lately.<\/p>\n In particular, Woods has been struggling with his general health since a catastrophic 2021 car accident<\/a>.<\/p>\n ESPN<\/a> noted that, since that accident, the still competitive<\/a> 47-year-old golf star has maintained that he\u2019d focus on playing primarily in major championships.<\/p>\n The next major championship on the PGA Tour is, coincidentally, the PGA Championship in May \u2014 the same tournament where Woods allegedly had a surgical screw puncture his skin.<\/p>\n Woods has not indicated if he will try and play in that event.<\/p>\n This article appeared originally on The Western Journal<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post New Detail About Tiger Woods\u2019 Injury Shocks Fans as Golfer Withdraws from Masters<\/a> appeared first on The Gateway Pundit<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In a scene right out of a horror movie (or \u201cHome Alone\u201d), gruesome new details about Tiger Woods\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"\n
