He will most likely never play golf again.

Looks like he's expected to survive.
shareIt doesn't seem so long ago that it seemed inevitable that he would pass Jack Nicklaus one day. Not going to happen now. Lots of rich old white racists are probably chortling in glee. Although even before this accident, with his back injuries and such, it was a long shot anyways.
shareJeez you're an asshole.
shareLol, How is that? I was always rooting for him and I could care less about golf. He should have passed Nicklaus long ago but started having back problems. It sucks that given his age and this injury now, that's not likely. It would have been interesting to see when he was getting close. Like watching someone chase the home run record in baseball.
shareMaking baseless, hateful projections is a dick move. He's loved and hated by people of all colors.
shareJust going by what I’ve seen personally and that is some people disparaging him just because of his color. And they all happened to be well-to-do old white guys, so I wouldn’t say baseless.
shareSo you don't give a damn about golf but you're following this story so closely that you've noticed rich, white, old dudes are coming out from the cracks to openly throw dung balls at Tiger because of his race? Where have you come across these people?
shareI work with a number of people that love to play golf and recall how they delighted in his various back injuries that kept him from dominating the way he used to . I’m not going into specifics on what was said, but the message was pretty clear.

Playing the Race Card after this man was just badly injured? Seriously?? As chilone just said, you're an asshole!
😒
I’m sorry you guys don’t like when I poke fun at old white racists. By the way, playing the race card does not mean pointing out where racial tension exists in society. You should look up in what context to use that phrase. In any case, fuck off. No offense.
shareWhat's a little weird about this story that he doesn't have a limo driver.
Back in the day, a guy with his net worth wouldn't touch a steering wheel.
It is stupid that he doesn't have a driver, hasn't he had car problems before?
You'd think $70K a year would be worth it to hire a pro, I'd bet his agent has suggested this before
Glad he's not dead in any event but damn, you can afford a driver Tiger
I'm not sure how well to do Tiger is. His heydey was a long time ago, and he's had a ton of legal and medical problems. He ain't broke, but i'm not sure he's paying for drivers either.
shareHis net worth was like $800 million in 2020.
sharegolly, really? i'm shocked. i didn't know there was that much money in golf. he should have a self driving flying car by now.
shareNike hooked him up too
shareWoods' endorsements were spread across eight companies – Bridgestone, Discovery Communications, Inc., Hero Motocorp, Monster Energy, Nike, Rolex, TaylorMade and Upper Deck.
Not to mention he has video games,golf clubs, and his likeness on all kinds of merchandise.
He's getting by. Lol
He's done for sure. He will never compete at a professional level again. He already had a bevy of back problems before they stuck a bunch of pins in his legs. And he's already at the age where you age out of the competition. I'm sure we'll still see him doing charity matches and picking up endorsement deals though.
shareYep. He's already proved himself a long time ago. And he's worth $800 million. So, he already has the money.
