Tiger Woods’ private jet heads to Florida after a brief 5.5 hours break at Texas

Tiger Woods is currently out of action, but fans are keeping a close eye on his every move. He recently visited Fort Worth, Texas, via his private jet and stayed there for 5.5 hours before heading back to Florida.

Earlier this month, Woods was last spotted at the Hero World Challenge, one of the two tournaments he hosts. However, he did not compete at the event and has remained out of action since July.

On Monday, December 16, Radar Atlas 2, a popular aircraft spotting account on X, reported that Woods' jet took a short trip to Fort Worth.

"Tiger Woods' airplane #N517TW flew to Fort Worth, TX today and is now headed back towards Florida. The plane was on the ground for ~5.5 hours between about 9:40am and 3:00pm local time," Radar Atlas 2 wrote.

Tiger Woods is set to make his return to competitive golf next week at the PNC Championship. He will be participating in the exhibition alongside his son, Charlie Woods, for the fifth straight year.

Last week, Woods confirmed his participation stating that he was excited to play at the exhibition event.
