Tiger Woods returns to the field. The Californian champion, from 7 to 10 April, will play the 86th edition of The Masters in Augusta (Georgia, USA). Twenty-five years after his first (of five) Masters success and 14 months after the serious car accident he was involved in in Los Angeles, the Californian will be the most anticipated protagonist of the competition. "At the moment I feel ready to play," said the Californian who he later added. "I am thrilled with how my recovery is progressing." And to those who ask him if he is ready to win, he answers with a "yes".

Tiger Woods, statements

"When I feel that I will no longer be able to win, then I will stop. But I still feel capable of doing it," Tiger Woods added during a press conference in Augusta two days before the 86th edition of The Masters. The champion, after days of waiting, dissolved the reserve by announcing that he will be among the participants of the most prestigious golf tournament.

He is among the most successful sportsmen ever, as well as one of the richest in the world. When it comes to firsts Tiger Woods is always present: 15 majors won, 110 professional tournaments, the most successful golfer in the history of this sport. Statistics that explain why he managed to stay at the top of the world ranking for 683 weeks (of which 281 consecutive) and above all because in 2014 he became the first sportsman in the world to have broken the billion dollar barrier. Astronomical figure that also justifies the fact that Tiger Woods can afford a yacht like the Privacy, a real fairytale boat. And obviously we are talking about something that has cost a lot.

If you imagine a luxury yacht and some comfort on board, then Privacy has it. 48 meters long, with a total area of ​​600 square meters, this yacht was purchased by the golfer in 2004. Equipped with five cabins capable of accommodating a total of ten people, she also boasts four quarters for nine crew members. Tiger Woods usually calls it "my dinghy" even if everything looks like a dinghy: with a cruising speed of 18 knots, he also has a gym on board where the golfer keeps training. Woods, in fact, prefers to stay on this yacht during the tournaments held in New York.

With cherry wood interiors, Privacy also features an elevator for three people, a huge Jacuzzi, large enough to accommodate eight people, and the inevitable cinema room and corner bar. The extra something for this mega yacht is provided by the area that Tiger Woods wanted to be dedicated to scuba diving: this also explains the presence of a decompression chamber (inflatable) and an area dedicated to filling oxygen cylinders. The luxuries are also completed by three jet skis and two scooters for short shore excursions. Obviously, all of this has a price: Privacy cost 17 million euros and its annual maintenance amounts to 1.7 million euros.
