Tiger Woods was seen striding along as he caddied for his son Charlie at a golf competition at the weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 15-time major winner, 47, was on the bag for the 14-year-old at the\u00a0Notah Begay III Invitational at Koasati Pines in Louisiana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Charlie, who qualified for the event by shooting a six-under 66 at the last Chance Regional, struggled at the weekend shooting a 73-74, leaving him five-over thru 36 holes and tied for 23rd place with the third and final round taking place on Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, it was his dad who still managed to steal the limelight as a video of Woods walking the entire course without much of a limp caught fans’ attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The PGA Tour legend has not played professionally since he was forced to withdraw from the Masters following the third round in April as he battled reaggravated plantar fasciitis due to the injuries he sustained from his horrific 2021 single-car accident.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Woods has previously supported Charlie and they played together at the PNC Championship<\/p>\n
Woods underwent surgery in April to help with the injury and has kept a relatively low profile on and off the course since.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He has recently supported Charlie at events but this weekend marked the first time since surgery that he has carried the bag for his son and walked the entire course.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And the fact he appeared to do so with relative ease has only fueled speculation that the 82-time winner on the PGA Tour could be gearing up to a return.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On October 7, Woods teased fans with a clip of him hitting a wedge into a par-three at Pebble Beach.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belief that he could soon take to the course again was ramped up later last month when the field for the Hero World Challenge, which is hosted by Woods in the Bahamas, was released with one spot left empty, leading fans to claim it could be left free for Woods to take come November 30.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 15-time major winner has not played professionally since withdrawing from the Masters<\/p>\n
At the World Wide Technologies championship, hosted at Woods’ Mexico course ,El Cardonal at Diamente, last week Stewart Cink revealed that the five-time Masters winner had ‘started practicing’.<\/p>\n
‘So that means he’s in go-mode for something, and I think we’re all pulling for him to feel as good as he can feel, and if he’s hitting golf balls, I think he’s going in the right direction,’ Cink said.<\/p>\n
Notah Begay, one of the few Native Americans to play on the PGA Tour, hosted the tournament the younger Woods competed in at the weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Begay and Woods senior have been friends for a long time, playing together during their college days at Stanford\u00a0<\/p>\n
