‘He’s going to dominate’ – Source reveals Tiger’s new career goal…and it revolves around the Masters

Published

Around 13 months ago, the 15-time Major winner was involved in a serious, almost career-ending car accident, but has recently been seen practicing with far more regularity.

Highlights of his time away from high-level competition include appearing, and finishing runners-up, alongside son Charlie, at the PNC Championship. He has also spent time watching the 13-year old improve through the junior ranks over the last six months, alongside some quality time with all his family.

As a recent inductee into the World Golf Hall of Fame, Tiger has already been confirmed as going down in history, although as a winner of 82 PGA Tour events and 93 total worldwide, he probably didn’t require that further welcome accolade.

The 46-year-old has already pulled off a couple of ‘miracle’ victories at major championships – the first at the 2008 U.S Open, when overcoming a serious leg injury and an elongated play-off with Rocco Mediate and, in 2019, when returning from a fused back to win his fifth green jacket.

To do it once again would be a greater feat than either of those, but a member of his team confirmed to PEOPLE this was the target

“He’s aiming for the 2023 Masters Tournament, says a source. “And he has a new goal – to be the oldest winner at the Masters. Jack Nicklaus won when he was 46. Tiger will be 47 next year when he competes, and that’s the newest record he is going for. He’ll stop at nothing to accomplish it.”

They added: “Tiger was known for his focus before, but now he’s learned to focus through terrible pain. And now that the pain has mostly faded, that focus is still there. He’s going to be a force when he returns to the game. He’s going to dominate.”

Yes, Jack was 46 with that Masters win, but then he wasn’t plagued with injuries, either. Will Tiger even be able to walk the course? Quite a “puff” piece but an unrealistic expectation. I hope we don’t have to endure seeing Tiger being carted off to the parking lot again.

Meth is a dangerous drug that will ruin careers, especially journalism. Tiger will be darn lucky to even play again, let alone be competitive. He’s up against younger, longer, and stronger players who hasn’t been in car accidents recently.

It’s not impossible but highly improbable that Tiger will even win a regular Tour event let alone a major. The fields are too deep with young, fearless players. They don’t cower at the thought of Tiger on the leaderboard like his peers did during his heyday.

He can try if he wants to.

But, I would recommend he focus on getting well and rebuilding his strength, and then land with a bang in the Champions Tour in 2025.

If he works on getting well, he could still play some PGA Tour events upon his return.

Would love to see Tiger win again,however, it’s unlikely he can just show up four or five times a year and take down the top players in the world who are fit,tour hardened and in competition form. I would hate to see him embarrassing himself and his legacy.Like hearing an aging vocalist or other veteran way past their prime. TV ratings go would be great though.

  It’s Tiger, so I wouldn’t bet against that. Phil won a major at 51. Good luck with that.

Testing Lorem Ipsum

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
