Why is Tiger Woods not playing at the US Open after making remarkable comeback?

Tiger Woods was set to participate in the 2022 US Open this week, but the iconic golfer withdrew from the third major of the year to focus on recovery from his horrific car crash in February 2021.

The US Open begins today at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts. As a three-time winner of the event, Woods has made a number of sporadic appearances on the PGA Tour this year after he completed his unbelievable comeback from the crash he suffered in Los Angeles.

Woods has undergone extensive rehabilitation since suffering horrific leg injuries in the car crash, just two months on from undergoing further surgery on his back injury which has plagued the legend for years. He suffered comminuted open fractures to both the tibia and fibula in his right leg after losing control of his vehicle.
