Prior to competing in The Masters, Tiger Woods has made the decision to remain with his caddy.
The 48-year-old, who hasn’t competed since the Genesis Open in February, will definitely be back at Augusta in 2024, it was revealed on Friday. The American has only participated in eight competitions since his horrible vehicle accident in 2021, which left him with severe leg damage. As a result, his world ranking has fallen to No. 950.
But after being added to the field of competitors, he will start chasing his sixth major on Thursday at The Masters. According to Golf Monthly, he will compete with seasoned caddie Lance Bennett at his side. Bennett was hired by Woods during the Genesis Open at Riviera two months ago, and the two will continue to collaborate at the first major of the year.

The 15-time major winner made the cut at the 2023 Masters to tie the record for consecutive major cuts. He will be participating in the tournament for the 26th time this year, but some people close to him, including his buddy and former Stanford teammate Notah Begay III, are worried about how his body will fare.
He’s attempting to devise a plan of action and methodology that he can implement considering the limitations that have been placed in front of him. Additionally, he has certain limitations, Begay said to USA Today. He expected he would eventually experience low back issues, but he now has no range of motion in his left ankle.
