Tiger Woods is intensifying his focus for the upcoming Masters tournament in Augusta to such a degree that he’s reportedly abstaining from one of his favorite non-golf activities: sex.
According to an interview with the New York Post, a close friend of Woods revealed that he’s implemented a new routine ahead of tournaments, including refraining from sexual activity until the event concludes. The friend emphasized Woods’ unwavering dedication to his preparation, stating, “He’s focused… He’s even eliminated sex.”
“He’s focused,” says a friend of the 48-year-old golfer. “He’s working really hard in the gym. He’s eating right. He’s even eliminated sex.
“He does that now when he’s preparing: no sex until the tournament is over. He doesn’t want anything to take away his focus.”
This commitment to laser-sharp focus extends beyond his golfing regimen, as Woods, currently single, doesn’t have a significant other in his life at the moment, the source disclosed.
With his attention squarely on his golf career and nurturing his son Charlie’s budding talent in the sport, Woods is leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of success. However, navigating the golf course has proven challenging for Woods amidst a string of injuries.
Since his memorable victory at the 2019 Masters, Woods has faced a tumultuous journey, participating in 10 majors but contending with withdrawals, cuts, and mixed finishes. As he gears up for the 2024 Masters, fans are hopeful that this tournament will mark a turning point in his quest to regain competitiveness on the golfing stage.
