Woods stops playing full time golf

The world’s most famous golfer says he accepts that his career at the top of the game looks to be over after a high-speed crash in February.

The golfer suffered open fractures in the crash and police said he was speeding.

Tiger Woods has said be won’t be able to play golf full-time “ever again” after a car crash in which he could have lost his leg.

The 15-time major champion was speeding, police said, when his SUV hit a tree in Los Angeles in February.

His chances of more top titles appear to be over and the 45-year-old said he’s looking at just one or two events per year if his rehab goes well. 

Woods told Golf Digest: “I think something that is realistic is playing the tour one day never full-time, ever again but pick and choose, just like Mr (Ben) Hogan did.

“Pick and choose a few events a year and you play around that.”

The golfing great said he accepts his time competing among golf’s elite is probably a thing of the past.

“I can still participate in the game of golf. I can still, if my leg gets OK, I can still click off a tournament here or there,” he said. SkyNews.
