The GolfWRX forums are abuzz with a discussion of an unexpected equipment switch Tiger Woods appears to be making in preparation for the 2022 Masters (which he remains a game-time decision for!).
It’s nothing from within Woods neon green-and-black Monster Energy golf bag, however, that have set our WRXers fingers atyping. Rather, it’s Tiger’s shoes. Namely, in a blow to the supporting pillars of your universe, the 15-time-major champion looks to be wearing — not Nike! — black FootJoy Premiere shoes.
See what GolfWRXers are saying in the forums, and check out a handful of responses below.
- hammergolf: “Yep, FJ Dryjoy Premiers”
- 00steven: “Guessing the most comfortable given the circumstances, Tiger wouldn’t have forgotten his shoes…he plans on gaming these.”
- payerasjl: “Probably significantly more stable. He can do whatever he wants and Nike will happily just smile and be glad he’s back to playing”
