Tiger Woods is under medical care for a terrible car accident – but golf audiences saw his image at tournaments around the U.S. on Sunday, as many of the game’s top golfers wore Woods’ signature red shirt and black pants in his honor.

“It is hard to explain how touching today was when I turned on the tv and saw all the red shirts,” Woods said via Twitter. “To every golfer and every fan, you are truly helping me get through this tough time.”

Woods is recuperating from a rollover crash in Southern California that left him with significant injuries, particularly in his right leg. A rod is now bolstering his tibia, and surgeons used pins and screws to stabilize his foot and ankle.
