Tiger Woods
It
would have been the perfect way to honor a close friend and golfing
legend, but Tiger Woods has pulled out of the Arnold Palmer Invitational
tournament after failing to recover from a back injury.
Woods has not played since withdrawing from last month's Dubai Desert Classic
because of back spasms, part of a recurring injury that has plagued his
career for the best part of three years and resulted in multiple
surgeries.
Woods said there was "no timetable" for his return but told his website "treatments are continuing and going well."
The latest setback casts serious doubt on the 14-time major champion's appearance in the upcoming Masters, 20 years after he won his first major there as a 21-year-old.
