Tiger Woods, Will Zalatoris make shaky comeback at 2023 Hero World Challenge
Both Tiger Woods and Will Zalatoris have made their comeback at the Hero World Challenge. Both golfers were out for about seven to eight months due to injuries and subsequent surgeries. The start for both golfers on day 1 was slightly rough, with both of them hitting the bottom of the leaderboard after day 1.
Speaking about his round, Tiger Woods said via The Guardian:
"Now I know mentally what I need to do better. Physically, I knew I was going to be OK. Mentally, I was really rusty and made a lot of errors in the mind that normally I don’t make."
However, day 2 has seen a significant improvement, with Tiger Woods up to 15th place from his original 18th on day 1. While Zalatoris has not improved his position, his second round of play sees him at 4-under-par, which is a considerable improvement from the 9-over-par he finished with on day 1.
