GOLF legend Tiger Woods looked almost unrecognizable in a rare public appearance.
The Masters legend was spotted watching son Charlie in a tournament earlier this week.

The 49-year-old has suffered a number of health and injury issues in recent years.
And fans were left concerned by his latest look at the 41st annual Nicklaus Junior Championship.
That was at the Tequesta Country Club in Florida.
Woods was in full dad mode looking to see his 16-year-old son qualify for the US Junior Amateur earlier this month.
That was at the Eagle Trace Golf Club qualifier in Coral Springs, Florida.
However, the former world number one looked quite frail as his heads into his veteran years this week.
He was seen in shades and a hat with a grey beard, and a lot different to his playing days.
And fans took to social media after spotting the 15-time major winner, particularly his legs.
“Sad to see Tiger,” one said.
Another added: “His lower body looks old.”
A third commented: “Nice to see Tiger out walking and watching Charlie play.”
A fourth noted: “Both of his legs look like twigs compared to the rest of his body.
“Don’t think he’ll be able to fully come back anymore to playing PGA Tour events and contending.”
And one said: “Achilles rupture is no joke.”
Charlie went on to finish 6th in the 122-man field at the tournament.
Woods hasn’t played in a PGA Tour event since missing the cut at The Open in July 2024.
However, he did play in his and Rory McIlroy‘s indoor TMRW Golf League earlier this year.
He has been dealing with a number of medical setbacks.
In March, he announced he had ruptured his left Achilles.
Woods, now dating Vanessa Trump, also had his sixth back surgery in 2024.
And in 2021, he almost lost his right leg after a car crash.
