Tiger Woods is going ALL IN on this year’s Masters Tournament.
How do we know that? Well, not only has he taken a lot of time off since his last tournament (which he withdrew from), he is allegedly giving something up that’s historically been important for him.
According to a source that talked to the New York Post, the 15-time major champion (5 of those Masters victories) is eliminating virtually all distractions ahead of the year’s first major tournament. And we mean all of them.
The alleged close friend had this to say about Tiger’s preparation for the tournament he’s dominated so many times in the past:
“He’s focused. He’s working really hard in the gym. He’s eating right. He’s even eliminated sex.”
I’ll go ahead and quote drunk golf fans that go to PGA events by exclaiming, “LET’S GO TIGER!”
Woods clearly means business as he tries to get back into his playing form and dominance of yesteryear. The pro golfer has really struggled with his health, specifically his leg, ever since he suffered significant injuries sustained in a car crash in 2021.
That injury gives him all the more reason to make sure he’s locked in with every other aspect of his game, and his life, as the source added:
“He does that now when he’s preparing: no sex until the tournament is over. He doesn’t want anything to take away his focus.”
As for the science backing Tiger’s decision to practice abstinence, I guess time will tell if not “doing the nasty” helps performance out on the golf course. Tiger is reportedly single right now too, so the 48-year-old’s efforts shouldn’t be all that challenging.
And the funny thing is that Woods hasn’t even confirmed that he’ll be playing in the 2024 Masters, though since he’s won in the past, he can play in the tournament every year for as long as he’s able.
With this extra preparation that he’s allegedly putting in, something tells me to keep an eye out for those “Tiger roars” when the Masters gets underway. Excuse me while I go check the sports book odds for Tiger to take home another green jacket…
