Tiger Woods’s Next Stop After the 2024 Masters Confirmed? PGA Tour Veteran Drops Major Hint

Tiger Woods might have to go back on his words. Woods said in December that he was planning to tee up once a month in 2024. That looked realistic for the 48-year-old. Per the plan, Masters was supposed to be his only outing during April. But that might as well change, thanks to Steve Stricker.

Stricker, Woods’s buddy on and off the course, would try to persuade him to play one more event in late April. The PGA Tour Champions Pro wants to offer Woods a chance to partner with him at the Zurich Classic, the PGA Tour’s lone team event. The 57-year-old, in a chat with Golf Digest’s The Loop podcast, said, “I thought about asking him to see if he wanted to play in New Orleans at the team event.” “How cool would that be?” a delighted Stricker exclaimed.

The two friends have teed up together at the 2010 and 2012 Ryder Cup. Furthermore, at the 2023 PNC Championship, the 15-time Major winner teamed up with his son, Charlie Woods. While his daughter, Sam Woods, was looping for him. Stricker was also present with daughter Izzy, who received praise from Tiger Woods after the final round at Ritz Carlton Golf Club.

Stricker said, “I think I’m going to text him and say, hey let’s do this one more time. Let’s get together one more time.” While Stricker has doubts if the veteran will agree, it would be a super fun event. “I don’t think this will happen, but it’d be a blast,” added the veteran golfer. Zurich Classic will tee off on April 22 at TPC Louisiana. Stricker also commented on Woods’s game and what he thinks the future holds for the former World No. 1.

What does Steve Stricker think of Tiger Woods’s game?

Stricker, who recently broke Woods’s record of 52 consecutive rounds under par, feels that the Hall of Famer looked good despite bowing out of the Genesis Invitational. Tiger Woods had to withdraw from the event he hosted at Riviera due to Influenza. But Stricker feels relieved that it didn’t have anything to do with physical injuries. “It looked like he was getting a little bit better. So I’m excited for him for that part.”

I’m hoping the best for him, and I hope to see him playing in these Majors. His swing looks fine, and he is going to get it around,” Stricker concluded. The Wisconsin resident, who captained the 2021 Ryder Cup-winning team earlier, revealed that texts from Woods inspired him a lot. In fact, speaking at that time, the veteran golfer said he would love to see Tiger Woods as a vice-captain sometime in the future. Notably, Woods was the US team captain at the 2019 Presidents Cup. The 82-time PGA Tour winner recently participated at the Seminole Pro-member on Monday.
