GOLF superstar Tiger Woods has officially pulled out of The Masters leaving fans distraught.

Woods, 47, just made the cut following a dramatic collapse from Justin Thomas in round two.

However, the golfing icon has decided to throw in the towel after a viral video emerged leaving spectators worried.

And SunSport has the reason why.

Why has Tiger Woods withdrawn from the Masters?

The 15-time major champion was filmed tentatively limping over to his caddie after making a shot.

Fans took to Twitter to share their concerns for the golf legend, with one person writing: “Tough to watch but also inspirational. Incredible that he’s even playing at all after the extent of his injuries.”

Another added: “Simple…This is a CHAMPION. Almost lost his leg 26 months ago. Guts it out to make the cut (again) in the AM, doing so on one-leg and in awful conditions.

A third commented: “Hey, @TigerWoods, You’ve given us countless incredible moments and memories for three decades. You are the GOAT. We are good if you want to sit this one out tomorrow.”

Has Tiger Woods had previous injuries?

Woods suffered a life-changing injury in February 2021 following a horrific car crash.

The golf star was forced to undergo surgery on his right leg and he feared that he would never walk again.

However, the serial winner miraculously returned to the golf course for The Masters last year after a period of intense rehab.

What has Tiger Wood said?

Tiger Woods: “I am disappointed to have to WD this morning due to reaggravating my plantar fasciitis. Thank you to the fans and to who have shown me so much love and support. Good luck to the players today!”
