As The 151st Open Championship draws nearer and nearer, the world's elite are fully focused on a potential victory at one of the biggest tournaments in golf. One player that won't be present at Royal Liverpool though is Tiger Woods, with the three-time Claret Jug winner missing from the event.
It's no secret that Woods has had his injury problems in 2023, with the 15-time Major winner withdrawing from the 2023 Masters due to his plantar fasciitis injury being reaggravated in the third round. The injury stemmed from a serious car crash in 2021 and, not long after the withdrawal at Augusta National, Woods revealed that he had undergone a subtalar fusion procedure in New York to address post-traumatic arthritis from a previous fracture.
