Golf legends Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus have expressed their support for Tiger Woods, who is currently absent from the Masters due to health issues. Woods has been dealing with the aftermath of a car accident and is facing charges related to driving under the influence. Player, while sympathizing with Woods' chronic pain, advised him to refrain from driving and instead hire a chauffeur. 'My heart goes out to him, as living with constant pain is unbearable,' Player said. 'I hope he can resolve his issues, as he is a valuable asset to the sport.' Nicklaus also extended his well-wishes, stating that golf needs Woods and would love to have him back. Augusta National chairman Fred Ridley confirmed that they support Woods' decision to prioritize his health and well-being.
