Tiger Woods will not be competing at this week's Valspar Championship. The next PGA Tour event is scheduled to take place from March 21 to 24 at the Copperhead Course in Florida.
Featuring a stellar full-size field, the PGA Tour event will include some top-ranked golfers. However, several big names will be absent from the event.
Brian Harman and Xander Schauffele are among the top-ranked golfers who will tee off at the Valspar Championship. Notable players such as Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler will not participate.
Tiger Woods, who previously stated his intention to compete in at least one tournament per month in 2024, has not played in any events in March so far. He competed in The Genesis Invitational last month, but was forced to withdraw mid-event due to illness.
Despite expectations for him to join the stellar field of The Players Championship, the legendary golfer missed the 5 pm registration deadline and did not compete at the event, which concluded last week.
Fans can expect to see him play next at The Masters 2024. The first major of the year is scheduled from April 11 to 14 at Augusta National Golf Course.
Woods, who has won the prestigious tournament five times and holds a lifetime exemption to compete in it, also participated in the tournament in 2023 but was forced to withdraw due to injury after making the 36-hole cut. He is most likely to join the field of The Masters next.
