Tiger Woods hits balls on the range for first time since accident
Summary

Tiger Woods was seen practicing on the driving range at Liberty National in New Jersey, marking his first appearance since a car accident in March. He shared footage of himself hitting balls and stated he could "hit pretty much anything." Woods is hosting the Nexus Cup, an amateur event to benefit his TGR Foundation. He has not played competitive golf since 2024 due to various fitness issues, and earlier this month, he pleaded no contest to reckless driving charges, accepting a five-year driving license suspension.
