Kim Joo-hyung was scheduled 30 minutes before Woods’ interview that day. Although he has yet to win a major tournament, he seems to have been included in the list of attendees at the press conference as he received attention as a rising rookie of the PGA Tour by winning the Wyndham Championship and the Shriners Children’s Open last year.

Woods has not yet officially announced whether he will participate in the Masters this year, but his name was put on the press conference timetable, putting weight on the possibility of participation. Previously, Woods had won the Masters five times, in 1997, 2001, 2002, 2005 and 2019.
