Tiger Woods has caused concern among his fans after a video of the golf legend was posted on social media.

The 15-time major winner was filmed by American professional poker player Phil Hellmuth during the golfer’s Tiger Jam poker charity event. Woods’ poker night is renowned for welcoming celebrities and famous faces in the world of poker.




Hellmuth bumped into the 48-year-old during the event, which ran from May 31 to June 1, and the two began talking about Woods’ TGR Foundation. The foundation was established in 1996 by Woods and his father as a community-based support program for children in America.

Woods was filmed speaking to Hellmuth about his rewarding project, as he told the poker ace that TGR’s greatest success stems from the stories that kids share after being provided an education through his foundation.

In an unlikely gathering, Hellmuth posted the video of him talking to Woods and gaming streamer Ninja at the event. The poker star began by thanking Woods for hosting the event before he praised the five-time Masters champion.

“I think it’s the stories that kids come back and tell, (they’re) the first generation to ever go to college (in their family), parents said ‘you’d never go to college’, grandparents said ‘you’ll never go to college, it’s useless’,” Woods explained to Hellmuth
