On Feb. 23, Tiger Woods suffered serious leg injuries in a single-car accident in Southern California and has been hospitalized since then- until now.

Woods tweeted on Tuesday night that he’s now “back home and continuing [his] recovery.”

“I will be recovering at home and working on getting stronger every day,” Woods added in the statement.

“Happy to report that I am back home and continuing my recovery. I am so grateful for the outpouring of support and encouragement that I have received over the past few weeks. 

Thank you to the incredible surgeons, doctors, nurses and staff at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. You have all taken such great care of me and I cannot thank you enough. 

I will be recovering at home and working on getting stronger every day.

-Tiger”

It’s Woods’ first tweet since Feb. 28, when golfers around the world wore red shirts and black pants in honor of the 15-time major champion.

We have no idea if Woods will golf again, but that’s quite secondary to his general health and well-being of course. It’s fantastic to hear that he’s back home recovering, and hopefully he keeps making progress.
