Tiger Woods saw his dream of a record-tying sixth Masters victory collapse in Sunday morning’s third round of the Masters after the worst nine holes of his career in 99 rounds at Augusta National.
Tiger Woods was a sad sight on Sunday after his worst ever day at the Masters in a performance that sent rumours flying ., the 48-year-old legend struggled and showed signs of his difficulty walking rounds since suffering severe leg injuries in a 2021 car crash .The live TV broadcast reported there were rumours Woods was about to pull the pin on his round and retire — but the America n limped through all 18 holes.
“My team will get me ready. It will be a long night and a long warmup session, but we’ll be ready,” he said.Tiger Woods was still the biggest star on the course.

Zero fun to watch Tiger Woods right now. Can't even imagine how much pain he is in. Hands are there but the legs just aren't. A reminder he's completed 72 holes just 3 times in the last 3 years.Tiger needs to either get an exception to use a cart or just hang it up. Heâs just not there physically and the constant build up and let down every major is getting to be too much.
The 15-time major winner went over the green at the par-3 sixth then missed a five-foot par putt and made bogey.
