Tiger Woods faces the biggest fight of his career after undergoing surgery on "significant" right leg injuries following a car crash in Los Angeles.

Here, the PA news agency examines whether the 15-time major champion can recover and challenge at the top of world golf again.

What happened?

Woods has never appeared as comfortable in a media booth as on the driving range or the putting green. Even in his weekend television interview, at the Genesis Invitational tournament which he hosted, he looked distanced and distracted. So punditry might not hold any interest or come easy. Woods was the United States' Presidents Cup captain in Australia in 2019 and has been seen as a future Ryder Cup captain. Woods' son Charlie is a promising junior player and he will no doubt shape the 12-year-old's future career. The pair competed at the PNC Championship in Orlando last December. Woods has been voted into the World Golf Hall of Fame and will be inducted in March 2022.
