Tiger Woods posted a photo of himself on his Instagram account where he appears smiling with crutches, his shin and right foot immobilized in a cast.
This photo is the golf star's first since his car crash in California on February 23, in which his right leg was broken.
Two months later, the golfer shows up alongside his dog at his home training facility, located in the city of Jupiter, Florida.
"My course is moving faster than I am," wrote Tiger Woods in a photo caption, referring to his three-hole training ground.
"But it's nice to have a loyal rehab partner, man's best friend."
The golf star, 45, has won 82 American Golf Tour (PGA) tournaments in his career tied with legendary Sam Snead (1912-2002). Tiger Woods has not released any timeline for his recovery or a date. to which he could walk again normally, keeping the blur around a possible resumption of his golfing career.
In early April, police had established that Woods was driving at "dangerous speeds", nearly double the limit, during his car crash in California in February.
The star had been operated at length, in particular for multiple open fractures to the right leg which required to insert a metal rod in the tibia and screws to consolidate the bones of the foot and the ankle.
The golfer is not, however, close to a comeback.
He has recovered from almost all injuries in his 25-year career, including multiple back operations, including arthrodesis, a painful fusion of vertebrae.
This had not prevented him in 2019, after eleven years of shortage in Major, to win his 5th Masters of Augusta, his 15th Grand Slam, then to equal the same year the record for the number of titles on the PGA circuit ( 82) until then the sole property of Sam Snead.
