Tiger Woods has revealed he still struggles to walk one year on from his horror car crash and “will never” play golf full-time again.
The 15-time Major winner was involved in an accident in February last year which wrecked his vehicle and left him needing surgery on a double leg fracture.
Woods hit a tree and flipped his car before being transferred to hospital by paramedics to treat the injuries he sustained in the crash.
He has yet to return to the PGA Tour since the accident and has admitted he cannot currently confirm when he will return to the Tour.
Speaking to the media ahead of this weekend’s Genesis Open, Woods explained: “Will I come back and play a full schedule? No. That will never happen again.
“I can play certain events here and there, but on a full-time level, no, that will never happen again. I wish I could tell you when I’m playing again.
“I want to know. But I don’t. My golf activity has been very limited. I can chip and putt well but I haven’t done any long stuff seriously. I’m still working on the walking part.
“Being in a cart, I can do that. But walking a golf course, that’s a totally different deal. I’ve got a long way to go.
“At this age, you just don’t heal as fast, which is frustrating. To be out here and play six rounds of golf, I’m not able to do that yet. I’m still working on getting to that point.”
Woods has been using a golf cart to travel around the course so far since his return from injury, including at the PNC Championship in December.
He played alongside his son Charlie in Florida, finishing as runners-up behind the father-son duo of John Daly and John Daly II.
As for Majors, Woods has not competed in one since his unsuccessful defence of the Masters in November 2020.
