Can't get over how good Tiger's footwork looks. I'd say it was unbelievable, but it's Tiger Woods, so it somehow makes sense

It has been nearly nine months since the 45-year-old sustained devastating injuries following a car crash in California.
Woods made headlines back in February when he was involved in a scary high-speed incident where he was the sole occupant of the car which ended up rolling off the road.
Thankfully, Woods somehow survived and escaped with a badly hurt right leg believed to be compound fractures, leaving him on crutches until fairly recently.
Now, nine months later, and his road to recovery seems to be going well.
