Tiger Woods proved he has plenty of golf left in him after setting the record for the most consecutive cuts at The Masters with 24 on a gruelling second day at Augusta National, where he played 23 holes.

Could Woods yet be seen striding down the 18th fairway resplendent in red with a sixth Masters title in his sights? After his second round, he explained he feels he has a chance. Regardless, seeing him in the final round for the first time in two years will be enough, and he’ll be…
