GOLF

It is rare that a golfer becomes a repeat winner in the PGA Championship. Only six players have won a PGA Championship in back-to-back years, with only two of those having come in stroke play.

Tiger Woods wrapped up his improbable return to competitive golf Sunday, finishing near the bottom of the leaderboard (13 over par) for players who made the cut at this weekend’s Masters Tournament.

Phil Mickelson has made the trip to the Augusta National Golf Club every year since 1994. That won’t be the case in 2022. Mickelson was not listed among the participants in the 2022 field on the Masters' website, and ESPN confirmed Mickelson will not compete this year.

Tiger Woods will make his return to golf after a year long hiatus, mostly due to his severe car crash in February, at this weekend’s PNC Championship as he plays along side his son, Charlie.

Tiger Woods has made a big step in his recovery from injuries he suffered in a late-February car crash. The veteran golfer posted a video to his Twitter account on Sunday morning that featured him swinging at golf balls.
