Hero World Challenge: Tiger Woods announced that he will not play in the Hero World Challenge this December as he continues to recover from back surgery.

The 15-time major winner hosts the annual TOUR stop in the Bahamas but has played the event just once in the last three years as he’s navigated health issues. Woods underwent his sixth back surgery in September, aimed at alleviating back spasms and pain he experienced throughout the 2024 season.

“I am disappointed that I will not be able to compete this year at the Hero World Challenge, but always look forward to being tournament host and spending the week with @HeroMotoCorp,” Woods wrote on X.
