Tiger Woods announced he underwent lumbar disc replacement surgery Friday.
Woods hasn’t played a PGA TOUR event since the 2024 Open Championship. He committed to participating in the Genesis Invitational, an event he hosts annually, in February, but he withdrew following the death of his mother.
The 49-year-old then underwent surgery for a ruptured Achilles tendon in March. Woods’ latest procedure is the seventh on his back since 2014.
