Some bad news for golf fans, even though most
suspected this would be the case, as Tiger Woods announced he will not be at the U.S.
Open as he continues to recover from back surgery.
Woods made it
official on his website Wednesday,
citing continued health issues and recovery from the back surgery he underwent
on March 31.
"Unfortunately, I won't be there because
I'm not yet physically able to play competitive golf," Woods said. "I'd
like to convey my regrets to the USGA leadership, the volunteers and the fans
that I won't be at Pinehurst. The U.S. Open is very important to me, and I know
it's going to be a great week. Despite missing the first two majors, and
several other important tournaments, I remain very optimistic about this year
and my future."
Woods, who turns 39 in December, will miss a second
straight major championship for the third time in his career after having to
pull out of the Masters for the same back issues
I don't think I will be watching the U.S. Open either this year. So sad. I also didn't watch the Master. Please get well soon Tiger. Thank God for the World Cup.
