Immediately after the final rounds at the US Masters 2022, Tiger went directly to the next interview and here he was asked about his plans for the future.

And fans hoping to see their superstar on the pitch more often in the future weren’t disappointed, although Tiger had to cut back a little and let his participation in the PGA Championship remain open: “I’ll never play a full program again , but only the big events,” said Woods of the schedule for the coming months.

“I don’t know if I’ll be playing Southern Hills or not, but I’m looking forward to St Andrews.” The Old Course at St Andrews is one of the oldest golf courses in the world and the oldest to survive in Scotland.

The Old Course is a public course set on public land in St Andrews, County of Fife, Scotland and is managed in trust by the St Andrews Trust under an Act of Parliament. The clubhouse of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A) is established next to the first tee.

As the number of players increased, the gorse was cut to make way for two fairways. The surfaces of all the greens (greens) were also significantly increased and two holes were installed on each green.
