Tiger Woods "wishes he could retire" and would do so if he won another major, according to his friend and basketball legend Michael Jordan.
Woods has not played since August, 2015 after undergoing three operations on his back in the space of 19 months, and won the last of his 14 major titles in 2008.
The former world No 1 has reportedly been having lengthy practice sessions ahead of a possible return to action and was seen hitting shots at a junior event on Thursday.
But Jordan believes the 40-year-old is "tired" after a long career in the spotlight and told ESPN The Magazine: "I think he really wishes he could retire, but he doesn't know how to do it yet, and I don't think he wants to leave it where it is right now.
"If he could win a major and walk away, he would, I think."
Jordan added: "The thing is, I love him so much that I can't tell him, 'You're not gonna be great again,'."
