Golf icon Tiger Woods expressed confidence in his ability to win the U.S. Open despite recent injuries and limited playing time.

The 47-year-old Woods last won the U.S. Open in 2008, and he has a total of three titles in the tournament. He tied for 38th in his last U.S. Open appearance in 2020.

Woods said he is excited to compete at this year’s U.S. Open, which will be held at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts, from June 15-18.
