Tiger Woods’ actions always attract various reactions, sometimes good while other times not so good. Golf.com recently tweeted a picture of Tiger Woods driving a golf cart during the Hero World Challenge. His son Charlie could be seen sitting in the back.

The picture attracted several reactions. Many fans reacted differently to the picture. While some were concerned about his right foot, few were of the opinion that his cap-wearing style wasn't suiting him.

There were questions about his cap-wearing style as well.

Tiger hasn't been on top of his fitness for quite a while. He was scheduled to play in the Hero Challenge last week but had to withdraw as he has still not recovered from the plantar fasciitis in his right foot. Plantar fasciitis can cause severe pain in heels and Tiger is still feeling pain while walking, which can worsen the injury or foot condition.

Despite the inability to walk properly, Tiger Woods has been adamant in his stance of not using a golf cart in PGA Tour sanctioned events.

"On the PGA Tour, no. On the sanctioned events where it’s allowed? Yes. Which is the Champions Tour, the PNC, things of that nature”, said Woods in Hero World Challenge press conference last week.

Woods stated that there was no problem with his shot-making ability or hitting power, but was still not able to walk properly.
