Tiger Woods reviews his Masters performance and reveals his 2024 Major plan

Tiger Woods reflects on his 2024 Masters and looks ahead to the other Majors

Tiger Woods reflects on his 2024 Masters and reveals his plan for the rest of the year.

It’s tough to say whether Tiger Woods’ 2024 Masters should be viewed as a success or failure. On the positive side, he set a new record for consecutive cuts made at Augusta, made it through four rounds at a physically demanding golf course without his body breaking down, and declared his belief that he is capable of winning a sixth Green Jacket.

On the downside, Saturday’s 10-over-par 82 was Tiger’s worst ever round in a Major and he revealed that his body “hurts every day”.

Tiger Woods’ 2024 Masters review

“It was a good week all around” said Woods. “Coming in here not having played a full tournament in a very long time, it was a good fight on Thursday and Friday. Unfortunately, yesterday didn’t quite turn out the way I wanted it to. Today, the round that Tom [Kim] is playing is what I thought I had in my system. Unfortunately I just didn’t produce it.” Tom Kim shot a 6-under-par 66 on Sunday, beating Woods by 11 shots on the day.  

Tiger’s 2024 Major plan

Tiger has previously revealed his plan to play once a month and target the biggest events on the golf calendar and reiterated that after finishing The Masters.

“I said I’d play once a month and I think the rest of the Majors is definitely doable. That’s about it.”

The next Major is the PGA Championship, on May 16-19, at Valhalla Golf Club, Louisville, Kentucky.

The US Open comes just under a month later, at Pinehurst Resort and Country Club, Pinehurst, North Carolina.

Major season then concludes with the 152nd Open on July 18-21 at Royal Troon in Troon, Scotland.

Tiger intends to play in all of them and revealed he will need to spend more time preparing for those events than he did at Augusta National.

“This is a golf course I knew going into it,” he said. “I’ve got to do my homework going forward at Valhalla, Pinehurst, and Troon, but that’s kind of the gameplan. I heard there are some changes at the next couple of sites so I’m going to get up there early and check them out.”

Aside from getting accustomed with the courses, Tiger, whose frame suggests he’s been putting in the hours in the gym, says he’s going to “keep lifting, keep the body moving, keep getting stronger, keep progressing”.

“Hopefully the practice sessions will keep getting longer,” he said.
