Tiger Woods struggles to worst round ever at PGA Championship

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

JOHNS CREEK, GA. — When Tiger Woods stuffed his approach shot to within three feet of the pin Thursday morning at Atlanta Athletic Club’s 14th hole, the full brunt of a brutally hot day hadn’t yet settled over the course, and there was no telling what was to come in the first round of the PGA Championship . At that moment, after he rolled in his third birdie in his first five holes, the possibility existed that Woods — absent from contention so often recently — was back. “I was having mechanical thoughts through those holes, and I figured I was 3 under, I can start letting it go now, and just play by instinct and feel,” Woods said. “And [I] just screwed up my whole round. I’m not at that point where I can do that yet.” Read full article > >

Tiger Woods will miss U.S. Open at Congressional because of injuries

Tuesday, June 7th, 2011

Tiger Woods announced Tuesday that persistent leg injuries will prevent him from playing in next week’s U.S. Open, depriving the event at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda of golf ’s marquee attraction while stoking questions about what impact Woods’s chronic health concerns will have on his pursuit of his sport’s most revered number: Jack Nicklaus’s record 18 major championships. Woods, 35, made the announcement in a statement on his Web site with, he said, an eye on his long-term health. The winner of 14 major championships hasn’t taken such a title in three years, nor has he won a tournament of any kind in 19 months, the longest slump of his career. He has also endured such personal and physical upheaval — a sex scandal, subsequent divorce , and now injuries to his left knee and Achilles’ tendon — that there is increasing concern in golf that the Woods of old is gone, never to return. He will miss the Open, which he has won three times, for the first time since he was 18, when he hadn’t yet turned pro. Read full article > >

Tiger Woods withdraws from The Players Championship

Thursday, May 12th, 2011

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLA. – Tiger Woods withdrew from The Players Championship after just nine holes Thursday morning, visibly limping after he aggravated injuries to his left knee and Achilles’ tendon – ailments that now put his availability for next month’s U.S. Open at Bethesda’s Congressional Country Club in question. “I’m having a hard time walking,” Woods said. Woods said he felt pain in his knee – originally injured on the 17th hole at last month’s Masters, the last tournament he played – on the opening tee shot, which he hit in the left rough, giving him a stance on pine straw. He slipped on the approach – “It obviously would have probably felt better if it would have held,” he said – and faced an awkward, uphill stance for his third shot beside the green.
