Florida, Mar 4, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Jack Nicklaus has turned out to be the other golfer who is pinning hopes upon the Augusta Masters to see a comeback of Tiger Woods. According to recent reports, the professional golfer has commented that he not only would like to see Tiger Woods back in action soon enough at the Masters, he has also said that would come as a real surprise to him if Tiger Woods does actually give the Masters a miss.

Although he feels pretty confident that Tiger Woods would be playing at the Masters, he does not, however, feel that it is going to be a comeback for the golf superstar. In fact, he admitted thinking that Tiger Woods would actually be back in the golf course before the grand tournament, and take part in at least one match. His confidence probably lies in his own comments. Jack Nicklaus admits feeling that golf runs in the veins of Tiger Woods, and also that a professional of his stature would not want to miss the chance of playing in a major.

Jack Nicklaus’ theory is supported by the fact that Tiger Woods has allegedly been spotted practicing the sport in the driving range of the Isleworth Country Club, according to a fellow golfer and neighbor. Whether he will actually be back at the Masters or not remains to be seen, but it cannot be argued with that his electric presence in the golf course is starting to be sorely missed, as can be understood from the comments of other champions of the sport. First, it was Angel Cabrera, and now Jack Nicklaus. The return of Tiger Woods seem but necessary.
