Tiger Woods's return to the golf course will have to wait at least one more week.
On Friday Woods’s agent Mark Steinberg confirmed that the 15-time major champion will not play in next week’s Arnold Palmer Invitational. Woods has won the event at Bay Hill a record eight times over his career but has chosen not to play the event for a second consecutive year. He missed last year’s tournament due to a neck strain.
It appears that Woods’s surgically repaired back, which he described as “stiff” after finishing 68th at the Genesis Invitational, is still not right.
