Tiger Woods is back on the golf course, although once again outside the ropes. However, the news is extremely encouraging for all golf fans, as he was seen walking normally and generally in excellent shape.
Woods made an appearance at Brook Hollow Golf Club in Dallas, Texas, to support his son, Charlie Woods, who is competing in the US Junior Amateur Championship. The 15-time major champion was seen wearing full golf attire, including competition shoes.

The news is a cause for joy in the golf world. Just over four months ago, Woods announced that he had suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon and had undergone surgery. This is an extremely complex injury, so the fact that he is walking freely is very promising.
A few weeks ago, Tiger had also been supporting Charlie while he competed in the Florida State Amateur Championship. However, at that time, he was seen using a golf cart, although without any special protection on his injured leg.
On the same date, Woods posted a video on his social media profiles, in which he is also seen walking normally during a visit to the Marcella Club in Park City, Utah. This is a golf course that his company, TGR Design, is building in that area.
Charlie Woods Plummeted Under Tiger's Watch
Woods' presence didn't help Charlie make it through the first round of the US Junior Amateur. The younger Woods carded a terrible 11-over 81 and is tied for 242nd in a field of 264 players.

His performance hit rock bottom on the back nine, where he carded consecutive bogeys on the 10th and 11th, a double bogey on the 13th, and bogey, double bogey, and double bogey from the 15th to the 17th. He closed the round on a high note, with a birdie on the 18th, but the damage was done.
Woods' son will play the second round at Trinity Forest Golf Club, also in Dallas, Texas, the event's main venue.
Charlie is currently ranked 19th in the American Junior Golf Association rankings. He recently won his first tournament in that category, the Team TaylorMade Invitational.
The elder Woods holds a place in the history of the US Junior Amateur, having won it three consecutive times, from 1991 to 1993. Woods is the only player to have won this event three times in its history.

Sha'Carri Richardson Arrested for Domestic Violence at Seattle Airport
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Reigning 100-meter world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on charges of fourth-degree domestic violence, according to a police report obtained by The Associated Press. Newsweek reached out to Richardson's agent and manager via email on Saturday for comment. Why It Matters The arrest of one of track and field's most prominent figures marks another controversial chapter in Richardson's turbulent career. This incident comes after her previous legal troubles, including a positive marijuana test at the 2021 U.S. Olympic trials that prevented her from competing at the Tokyo Olympics. Richardson's pattern of off-track issues threatens to overshadow her athletic achievements and raises questions about athlete conduct standards. What To Know The 25-year-old sprinter was booked into the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, at 6:54 p.m. local time Sunday and released Monday at 1:13 p.m. Despite the arrest, Richardson competed Thursday in the opening round of the women's 100 meters at the U.S. track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon. According to the police report, a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) supervisor notified airport officers of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, fellow sprinter Christian Coleman. Airport surveillance footage reportedly showed Richardson grabbing Coleman's backpack and yanking it away, then appearing to block his path as he attempted to move around her. The report indicates Coleman was shoved into a wall, and Richardson appeared to throw an item—potentially headphones—at Coleman. Coleman, also a world-class sprinter and former world champion, declined to participate further in the investigation and declined to be considered a victim in the case. Richardson's athletic resume includes winning the 100 meters at the 2023 world championships in Budapest, earning silver at the Paris Olympics, and contributing to the U.S. 4x100 relay team's Olympic gold medal. Sha'Carri Richardson reacts after competing in the Nike Women's 100m during the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships at Hayward Field on July 31, 2025 in Eugene, Oregon. Sha'Carri Richardson reacts after competing in the Nike Women's 100m during the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships at Hayward Field on July 31, 2025 in Eugene, People Are Saying USA Track and Field said in a statement: "USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter." What Happens Next? Richardson's immediate competitive future appears unaffected, as she successfully advanced through the opening round of the 100 meters at the U.S. championships. Her automatic qualification for the world championships in Tokyo remains intact due to her defending champion status. Fourth-degree domestic violence charges in Washington state are typically classified as gross misdemeanors, which can carry penalties including fines and potential jail time if convicted.
