Tiger Woods Pranks the Golf World with Epic April Fool's Day Joke
Published on
Tiger Woods isn't normally known for his pranking abilities. But he may have pulled off the best April Fool's Day joke in a long time.
Woods, the four-time PGA Champion, posted the following on X Tuesday morning:
I can’t believe I am saying this, but a few weeks after rupturing my left Achilles, the sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber plus the explosive lifts my doctors and trainers have me ready to play the Masters next week! Can’t wait! See y’all on the course.

That sent the golf world into a tizzy. Posts from Woods' accounts don't come too often, especially one that looks like it was typed by the man himself. But folks slowly realized that Woods may have been playing a prank, given it was April Fool's Day.

P.S. April Fools my Achilles is still a mess :) https://t.co/H1Y1AOgn2v

Needless to say, Woods won't be playing at the Masters but hopefully it's a sign of more funny posts from one of golf's living legends.
