Tiger Woods will not play on the PGA Tour this season, according to his agent, Mark Steinberg.
Woods, recovering from a series of three back surgeries, withdrew from the PGA Championship next week at Baltusrol and will miss all four majors in one season for the first time in his career.
“Continuing to make progress, but simply not ready for PGA,” Steinberg wrote in an email to the Golf Channel. “Will not play in the 15/16 season and will continue to rehab and work hard to then assess when he starts play for the 16/17 season.”
The 2016-17 seasons begins with the Safeway Open at Silverado Country Club in Napa on Oct. 13-16.
Woods has not played competitive golf since he tied for 10th in the Wyndham Championship last September.
