Tiger Woods just suffered another devastating injury. Is he done?

Live Mint  

Tiger Woods was training at home, working his way back from yet another injury, when he was struck by one more devastating blow on the back-nine of his career: a ruptured Achilles tendon. Woods, who was attempting to return from his latest back surgery, says he felt a sharp pain in his left Achilles and underwent a “minimally-invasive" repair for an injury that will require arduous rehabilitation—with no guarantee that it will ever fully heal. The latter half of Woods’s career has been plagued by injuries that have forced him to play through pain during the scant opportunities when he has actually been able to compete in recent years. At this point, it’s nearly six years since Woods defied expectations and overcame a previous spate of injuries, surgeries and off-the-course issues to take the Masters in 2019.
