TIGER WOODS could at least see the funny side, as he continued recuperating at home following the horror crash that left him with serious injuries last year.
The golf legend, 46, required emergency surgery after suffering a fractured leg and shattered ankle in a horrific car accident in California.

Woods’ property, which includes a four-hole practice area, complete with six bunkers is where he recovered after his crash
After recuperating at his amazing £41million property in the exclusive area of Jupiter Island, he made his sensational golf return at the Masters and has since played at the PGA Championship and The Open.
Prior to those, he revealed in his first press conference since the incident that he was finding it difficult negotiating his way around his vast mansion.
“I built a really nice house but I didn’t realise how big it was until you start putting crutches on. I am on the better side of it but still have a long way to go,” Woods joked.
Woods also spoke of the problems he had moving around.
“It’s been a lot of hard work,” he told reporters.
“There were some really tough times, just laying there. I was in a hospital bed for three months.
“It’s hard to explain how difficult it’s been, to be immobile for three months. I was just looking forward to getting outside, that was a goal of mine.
“I was just looking forward to getting outside. Eventually I got to a point where they could wheelchair me out and I could feel the sun, that was like a milestone.”
STUNNING PROPERTY
The £41million property is split into two sections, with one a 3,300-square-foot living quarters and the other a 6,400-square-foot multi-purpose building.
The latter includes a world-class gym, with the huge space also home to a media room, wine cellar and a lift.
A glass-covered walkway links the two buildings together, while there is also a guesthouse, a garage and a large mooring for his boats.
Dad-of-two Woods can also relax in his very own oxygen therapy room, or chill out in his basement games room or private cinema theatre.
The lavish house was built in 2010, just as his divorce from his ex-wife Elin Nordegren was being finalised.
Now he can enjoy his time there with girlfriend Erica Herman who healed golf’s flawed genius to achieve one of the greatest sports comebacks of all time.

Just around the corner from his luxury estate is his restaurant called ‘The Woods‘.
Billed as a “legendary sports bar experience”, the likes of Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler have all dined there.
Woods hasn’t played since dropping out of the Open Championship through injury in July.
He recently announced that he will return to action next month at the Hero World Challenge.

How can I reduce my golf score by five strokes
Improve your swing mechanics is the first thing that you should do. Even though you know how to hold the golf club properly, if you aren’t feeling comfortable swinging it correctly, you won’t get the correct feedback from your body. Once you’ve learned how to hold the club correctly, you can focus on strengthening your flexibility and strength. Slowly start, then work your way up to greater distances. You’ll find your game becomes more consistent as you strive for higher scores.
How can I improve my playing ability in just a few hours?
The best way to improve your golf game overnight is to practice for 20 minutes per day, three times a week. It is important to practice regularly if you want your game to improve at every tournament. Practice makes perfect!
Can I improve my playing without practice?
For improving your game, practicing is crucial. You can still improve your game even if you don’t have the time or resources for consistent drills. Simply remember that you must always work towards practicing what you intend to do. If you want to play faster, you need to focus on playing fast. You should focus on hitting the target farther if you want to hit the shot faster.
How do I improve my game of golf?
Improve your golf game quickly and easily with these simple tips.
- You should practice more than you play. If you want to get better at something, practice more. If you play too much, it can lead to bad habits.
- You should play when you feel good. There will be times when you don’t feel like going out on the course. You shouldn’t be forced to do things that you don’t like. Instead, find ways you can make golf fun again.
- Take breaks. Golfers often take breaks during their round to stretch, walk around, eat lunch, etc. Taking breaks can help your body relax and keep you focused throughout the round.
- Drink water! It is easy for people to lose track of the number of drinks they have had while out on the courses. Be sure to drink enough water, so you don’t get dehydrated. A good way to feel refreshed is to drink lots of water before, while, and after your game.
- Healthy eating is key. You will be able to do well on the course if you eat healthy foods, such as fruits, vegetables and lean protein.
- Stay hydrated. Water is the best thing to keep hydrated. Aim to drink at least eight glasses per day. This includes water that is made from beverages, such as coffee, as well plain water.
- Properly warm up. Begin your round by walking or running for five to ten minutes. Then, focus on getting loose and limber.
- Keep your head down. It is important to look straight ahead when you tee up. Avoid looking at the ball or watching where it lands. Your eyes should be focused on the hole instead.
- Swing with proper form. Proper form can mean different things to different people. You should avoid hitting your target with your swing. Instead, aim for the ball to be in the middle of your club face.
- The process is what matters. While there are several factors that contribute to a successful golf swing, focusing on the process will help you develop the most effective technique. You can relax your grip if your hands are slipping. Focus on good posture, if you find it difficult to balance.

How To
What are the best clubs for me to have in my bag of golf?
What type of golfer are you? This is the most important factor to consider when shopping for golf clubs. The higher end models are best suited for those who play golf every week or every weekend. A set of mid-range golf clubs might be more appropriate for you if you play only occasionally. It really depends on how much money you want to spend and how often you plan on playing.
If you’re going to be hitting a lot of balls off the tee then you’ll definitely want to invest in some good quality woods. They provide accuracy and great distance. This is why they are so popular. You’ll find that these types of clubs are usually made out of stainless steel or titanium which makes them very durable. Make sure you have the correct head size when you buy any type wood club. A smaller head will give you less forgiveness while a larger head will help you hit longer shots.
A good putter is another important tool. This is something that you’ll use quite frequently during practice sessions and tournaments. This will allow you to choose from two main options. A blade style putter is one option, while a mallet type putter is another. Blade style putters are more intuitive and allow you the ability to feel the ball approaching your face before hitting it. Mallet style putters are more forgiving and they require a little bit more skill to master.
You’ll need to have a variety of irons. There are many types of iron sets today. Some prefer to buy a complete set of irons, while others prefer to only purchase fairway woods and hybrids. Whatever you decide to do, make sure that you try out several different brands before making a final decision.
For wedges, it is important to choose a wedge that suits your swing. An example: If you’re left handed, an offset wedge will work best. But if it’s right handed, a straight through wedge would be better.
When selecting a driver, you’ll first want to determine whether you’re a pull hitter or a fade hitter. Drivers with a heavier weight are more popular among pull hitters. They are able to produce more torque and power behind a ball. They prefer lighter drivers. They’re more flexible and they’re able to produce more spin on the ball.
A variety of clubs is always a good thing. It’s always a good idea to have a variety of clubs in your bag. You can have all your clubs at your disposal.
