Tiger Woods officially out of the 2022 U.S. Open

Tiger Woods will not play in next week's U.S. Open at the Country Club in Brookline, Mass.

The news doesn't exactly come as a surprise, given that Woods withdrew from the PGA Championship last month after three increasingly rugged rounds.

Woods made the announcement Tuesday morning via Twitter:

Woods reaffirmed that he plans to play in two European events next month, including the Open Championship at St. Andrews.

He is still recovering from injuries suffered during a single-car rollover in February 2021 that very nearly cost him his right leg or even his life.
