On December 4th, 2018, Tiger Woods made a triumphant return to professional golf, shooting a record-breaking 75 at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas. This marked his first competitive round in nearly a year and a half, and it was an impressive performance for the 42-year-old Woods.
The Hero World Challenge is an annual tournament hosted by Woods himself, and it features 18 of the world’s best golfers. Woods shot a five-over-par 75 in the first round, which was good enough for a tie for ninth place. He was also able to hit some impressive shots, including a birdie on the par-5 18th hole.
Woods’ return to competitive golf is a major milestone for the legendary golfer. After undergoing four back surgeries in the past two years, Woods was unsure if he would ever be able to compete again. But with this performance, Woods has proven that he is still a force to be reckoned with on the golf course.
The 75 that Woods shot is also significant because it is the lowest score he has posted in a tournament since 2013. This is an impressive feat considering the amount of time he has been away from the game.
It is clear that Tiger Woods still has what it takes to compete at the highest level of golf. His performance at the Hero World Challenge proves that he is still one of the best golfers in the world. With his return to competitive golf, Woods has shown that he is ready to take on any challenge that comes his way.
