[Golf Topic] 'Traffic Accident' Woods "First Bare Leg Reveal"..."Competing in This Condition?"

"The 'Returned Golf Emperor' Tiger Woods (right) is exposing his injured right shin area from the traffic accident."

[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…The first photo of the “returned golf emperor” Tiger Woods (USA) showing his bare leg has been revealed.

This is after his right shin was shattered in a car rollover accident last February. On the 21st (Korean time), a junior player posted a photo on social media (SNS) with Woods wearing shorts, which quickly spread. Woods had planned to participate in the major US Open last week but gave up due to poor condition. It appears he visited the tournament venue to support his son Charlie, who was competing in a junior golf tournament during this period.

Dressed in black shorts and sandals, Woods exposed the injured leg from the traffic accident. A large scar from surgery is visible, and the side of his calf is concave. There is also a mark where a fist-sized piece of skin had fallen off and then reattached. NBC Sports in the US reported, “If anyone has not been impressed by Woods’ comeback from his injury after the traffic accident, this one photo will change their mind.”

Woods devoted himself to treatment and rehabilitation for 1 year and 4 months before making his comeback at the Masters last April. While practicing rounds, he sometimes wore shorts, but the injured right shin was covered with a leg brace or similar protection. He also passed the cut at last month’s major PGA Championship but withdrew before the final round. Woods is expected to participate in the last major, The Open, held over four days from the 14th of next month at the Old Course in St Andrews, Scotland.
