Tiger Woods will not compete in next week’s Houston Open, his manager, Mark Steinberg, confirmed to GolfChannel.com.
Woods suggested last week at the Zozo Championship that he was considering adding the Houston event to his schedule to prepare for next month’s Masters.
“We'll see how this week goes and make a decision from there,” he said at Sherwood Country Club.
Despite finishing tied for 72nd out of 77 players, Woods decided not to play the Houston event, which he’s never played before. The defending Masters champion said on Sunday at Sherwood that he has plenty of room for improvement before the year’s final major.
