Woods, 47, arrived at Augusta National Golf
Club on Sunday ahead of the 2023 Masters hoping to build on that
success.
News outlets in Augusta, Ga., spotted Woods practicing at the
course on Sunday afternoon.
The last time Woods played a tournament was the Genesis
Invitational in Los Angeles in February, where he made the cut
and shot 1-under 283.
There, the 15-time major champion said he aimed to play all four
major championships this season after withdrawing before the end
of the 2022 PGA Championship and missing the U.S. Open due to
his health and fatigue.
"My goal each and every year from here going forward is to play
in all the majors," Woods said in an interview on CBS Feb. 19.
"I'm not gonna play too much more than that. My body and my leg
and my back just won't allow me to play much more than that
anymore. ... That's gonna be my schedule going forward because
of all the limitations I have."
Woods placed 47th last year. He has won the Masters five times,
most recently in 2019. Only Jack Nicklaus won more green
jackets, with six.
Woods is expected to play short practice rounds Monday and
Tuesday, when the course will be fully open to media. The
Masters begins Thursday, with Scottie Scheffler the defending
champion.
