On the 1st (local time), he appeared on NBC's program "Today" and stated, "There are three major tournaments in the next three months. I want to participate in all of them." Woods has won a total of 82 PGA Tour events and has collected 15 major championship trophies.


Since suffering a serious injury in a car accident in 2021, Woods has not been able to achieve good results. At the first major tournament of the season, the Masters held last month, he posted his worst scorecard with a 16-over-par 304. He explained his current condition by saying, "I treat the injured area by soaking my body in cold water every day."


The remaining major tournaments this year are the PGA Championship (May 16-19), the US Open (June 13-16), and The Open (July 18-21). To participate in these majors, Woods would have to compete roughly once a month. Since 2019, he has never competed in all four major tournaments in a single year.



Woods praised the current world No. 1, Scottie Scheffler (USA). He acknowledged, "He is really a great ball striker." He added, "Watching Scheffler's ball trajectory is truly special," and complimented, "On days when Scheffler's putting is on, no one can stop him." Scheffler has competed in 10 tournaments this year, finishing in the top 10 nine times, including four wins. His recent five tournaments show a steep upward trend with results of 'win-win-second place-win-win.'
