American golfer Notah Begay III has said that Tiger Woods's chances of playing in this year's Masters are "50-50".
Woods has not played in the PGA Tour since taking a break from the game in February but speculation has risen that the former world number one is targeting a return at The Masters on April 9.
"As far as Augusta is concerned ... it's literally a 50-50 chance right now from what I can tell," Begay told 120 Sports.
"That's far better odds than what it was, say, three weeks ago. Three weeks ago, I would have said there was maybe a 1-in-10 chance of him playing at Augusta."
Woods has won 14 Majors throughout his career but has slumped to 96th in the world in the past 12 months.
