Will Tiger Woods Play the 2024 Masters? 👀

[Hypegolf] April 04, 2024 Weekly Digest 🐯 All Eyes on Tiger Woods in the Field for Augusta National TLDR: After a bit of a question mark had formed around his status, Tiger Woods was included in the field for the 2024 Masters by Augusta National Golf Club. Since then, he made a scouting trip to get a look at the course. It would be his 26th start at the tournament. Why It Matters: When Tiger withdrew during the second round of the Genesis Invitational in mid-February, he cited an illness, suggesting there was no cause for any longer term implications. That made it a bit of a surprise when he didn't show up at TPC Sawgrass for THE PLAYERS Championship, and now people are left to wonder whether the champion's health is compromised in any way leading into the year's first major.⁠⁠Read the full article [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- 🪵 Air Jordan 9 Golf With Wood Grain Textures TLDR: Jordan Brand's latest golf offering, the AJ9 G “Orewood Brown,” arrives as a celebration of the upcoming major championship season.

Hypegolf had the opportunity to attend the event in Scotland to see how the brand is building a community around travel and experiences. Why It Matters: Compared with its peers, no other brand is making a bigger content play than MANORS. The in-house team of Luke Davies, the brand’s co-founder and creative director, and James Wilson, a former pro golfer who recently came on board as creative strategist and is quickly becoming the face of MANORS, can be credited with that.⁠Read the full article [here](. --------------------------------------------------------------- 🇯🇵 This Tokyo Store Shows Why Golf Is Different in Japan TLDR: Take a look around the the Divot STORE in Tokyo which was recently opened by the founders of ANTi COUNTRY CLUB.
