After four days of solid grind at Augusta National, golf icon Tiger Woods now has the rather luxurious option of retreating to his £15m super yacht for some rest and recovery.

The 48-year-old put in an admirable diplay at the Masters, keeping up his streak of making the cut at Augusta and setting a new record, with 24 consecutive cuts to the weekend’s play made.

But the course conditions and his bodily aches and strains would soon catch up with him, with Woods falling away over Saturday and Sunday and leaking shots across the course.

The iconic star, sporting his trademark Sunday red and black colours, returned to the clubhouse with a final scorecard of 16-over-par.

Woods has pledged to turn out for each of the majors in 2024, with the PGA Championship, the US Open and the Open Championship to follow.

And it happens to come in very handy that the sporting legend is in ownership of a luxury £15m super yacht, with which he can conduct his downtime while also working on his sporting fitness and rehabilitation.

While amassing a huge fortune during his wildly successful sporting career, Woods made the investment in adding the impressive liner to his property portfolio.

The American ace even jokingly referred to his amazing 155ft vessel as his “dinghy” in the past, though this is far from the case.

Woods’ yacht measures 6,500 sq ft and can sleep a total of ten guests in five state rooms throughout its complex.

There are also four cabins that house the ship’s nine crew members, along with additional spaces for general storage and maintenance items.

Additionally and perhaps most importantly, the yacht also comes with a fully-equipped gym on board boasting some of the most pioneering gadgets in the fitness industry.

It also has a three-person elevator to get between floors on the vessel, while the top deck provides a sizeable eight-person Jacuzzi and a bar for hosting guests.

Keeping up the costs on such an impressive and sizeable vessel is no mean feat, and it is estimated that around £1.5m per year is required to keep the super yacht running and fully operational.

The yacht also has a scuba station and external storage to carry three jet skis, two ocean kayaks and two Vespa scooters. The interior was initially decked out in cherry woodwork, though it is unknown whether the inside of the yacht has since been renovated or modified by the golf legend.

Yet while Woods is still chipping away in the world of professional golf, and maintaining he still believes he has one final major win in him, others are not so convinced.

Woods’ former rival Colin Montgomerie recently admitted his sadness that Woods did not bow out after the 2022 Open Championship on the hallowed turf of St Andrews Old Course

“I just wish Tiger had gone after he waved on that Swilken bridge at St Andrews a couple of years ago,” Montgomerie told talkSPORT.

“He’s kept going, he thinks he can do it but it’s quite obvious now physically and mentally, that he can’t.

“He’s competing once a month and it’s not enough. You can’t play once a month and hope to contend with these guys now. He finished the tournament 82-77. It’s not close, obviously and I wish he’d waved goodbye to the golfing word a couple of years ago.”
