⛳ Tiger Woods says he's back in a major way.

The legendary golfer said on Tuesday that “as of right now” he will be playing in this year’s Masters, which would be his first major tournament since he nearly lost his right leg in a car crash last year. It’s a fitting return, as this year marks 25 years since Tiger won his first green jacket at the famed course in Augusta, Georgia, at just 21, his first major championship.

Norovirus cases are up: Here's how to get better, and when to seek help.

If you’re one of the unlucky ones who caught the stomach bug recently, you’re not alone. As COVID-19 cases have been falling across the country, cases of norovirus, commonly called the "stomach flu," have been on the rise since January, the CDC says.

Finally! Twitter says it will launch 'edit' button for tweets.

Twitter said Tuesday it has been working on an edit feature since last year, something its users have been requesting for years.

It was frustrating.”

This Hoda and Thomas Rhett duet on TODAY was heaven sent. Hoda and the country star sang Rhett’s “Look What God Gave Her” to the delight of the Rockefeller Plaza crowd on Tuesday.
