Tiger Woods has opened up about his decision not to accept a captain spot on the 2025 U.S. Ryder Cup team.

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Woods called it a "very difficult" decision but his schedule wouldn't allow him the time needed to do the job:

"I just didn't feel like I could do the job properly. I couldn't devote the time. I barely had enough time to do what I'm doing right now, and add in the TGL starts next year, as well as the Ryder Cup.
