Why is Tiger Woods not playing in the 2025 Masters Tournament?
Golf legend Tiger Woods is qualified to tee off in the Masters this year but will not be in the field due to an achilles injury. He has won 15 Major Championships and five Masters Tournaments.
On March 11, Woods shared some shocking news on Instagram, detailing the extent of his injuries. He mentioned that he was practicing at home when he was interrupted by a sharp pain in his left Achilles. The 82-time PGA Tour winner then visited the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, where he was operated upon by a specialist called Dr. Stucken. He further stated that the procedure was successful and he is expected to recover fully.
On March 11, the 82-time PGA Tour winner announced on Instagram that he was practicing at home when he began to experience sharp pains in his left achilles. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that his left achilles was ruptured. In his announcement, Woods stated that he underwent a minimally invasive tendon repair at the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, and is expected to make a full recovery.
After fans had given up hope of seeing Woods tee off at Augusta, he played a prank on them on April 1 by sending a post that said his injury was healed and he was going to compete in the 2025 Masters. The 82-time PGA Tour pro announced that his injury had healed and he was ready to tee off in the event at Augusta.
“I can’t believe I am saying this, but a few weeks after rupturing my left Achilles, the sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber plus the explosive lifts my doctors and trainers have me ready to play the Masters next week! Can’t wait! See y’all on the course,” Woods said.
The American pro golfer later revealed that it was a lighthearted joke and he is still far from being fully recovered. He is yet to make his first start on the PGA Tour this season.
