Tiger Woods interview highlights: Backing the PGA Tour over rival leagues, a timeline for his return and more

The press conference was Woods’ first since his single-car accident back in February.

A day after Golf Digest published an exclusive interview with Tiger Woods about his future, the 15-time major champion addressed the media for the first time since his single-car accident in February on Tuesday morning.

Woods spoke to reporters live from his Hero World Challenge event in the Bahamas and began by praising his TGR Foundation, which recently celebrated a 25th birthday. He also addressed his most-recent recovery and how it compared to that of his 10 other surgeries.

“This one’s been much more difficult,” said Woods. “It’s hard to explain how difficult it’s been to be immobile for 8 months. I was just looking forward to getting outside, that was a goal of mine, especially for a person who’s spent his whole life outside.”

Here are some of the highlights from Woods’ first post-accident press conference.
