Since then, he has undergone three surgical procedures on his back, most recently last October. A lot has happened since Woods’s last competitive appearance. He celebrated his 40 “I think the hardest thing for him is just to try to get the rust out and really get back to game-ready sharpness,” Day said, adding: “It’s always tough to come back, even though you’re one of the greatest of all time. It’s very difficult to kind of get that sharpness back. It should take a few tournaments.” Day said it would be fun “to play against him when he’s at his best.” Woods’s next public appearance is scheduled for later this month when he serves as one of the four vice captains for the United States team that competes at the Ryder Cup at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minn.
