Tiger Woods, the 15-time major champion, made his return to the PGA Tour at The Genesis Invitational after his withdrawal from the 2023 Masters due to an ankle injury. Unfortunately, his return was cut short. Woods was compelled to withdraw from The Genesis Invitational during the second round due to illness. After playing the first six holes, Woods began experiencing flu-like symptoms that impeded his ability to continue.

His business partner revealed that he was given an IV bag for treatment, implying the severity of his condition at the time. The sight of Woods being carted off the seventh hole at the prestigious Riviera Country Club left the spectators in shock and concern. This exit also raised worries about his health once more, considering the history of physical issues he endured throughout his illustrious career.

Tiger Woods’s return to PGA Tour was highly anticipated and his early exit, understandably, was a disappointment. Woods himself had hoped for a better and longer run in the tournament. Indeed, the concern now is whether he’ll be able to bounce back from this unfortunate incident and continue to showcase his talent in the sport at a high level.
