Tiger Woods He withdrew from the US Open, saying it would take some time for his body to recover.
Woods, 46, has announced that he will not be playing in the three-time tournament, which will be held June 16-19 at the Country Club in Brooklyn, Massachusetts.
Instead, the 15-time major champion will focus on next month’s British Open in St Andrews.
This spring, Woods returned to work much earlier than expected after a catastrophic car accident in February 2021. He played in the Masters in April, making the cut before disappearing, as his body was affected while running the course at Augusta.
He then competed in the PGA Championship in May and was cut there as well, although he withdrew before the final after playing 79 runs in the third round.
“It’s just going to get stronger,” Woods said ahead of the PGA Championship. “The more I use, the more I gain strength. Will I ever get full mobility? No. Never again But I can be strong. It’s going to hurt, but it’s going to happen. “
Woods suffered pain during his career, winning the 2008 US Open at Torre Pines, with a double strained fracture in his left leg and a torn ligament in his left knee, which was eventually torn. Surgery was necessary.
