Tiger, who is returning to golf after undergoing successful back surgery in September, has played at the PNC Championship five times. The 36-hole competition brings together 20 major champions and their family members.

Tiger also faced serious leg injuries when he was involved in a car accident in 2021, is now playing competitive golf for the first time since he competed at The Open Championship in July. In the past four seasons, Tiger has only made 13 starts on the PGA Tour. Speaking to reporters on Friday, Woods said his injuries have taken a toll.

“I’ve had a lot of procedures over the course of time,” Tiger said, per CNN. “I’m not going to feel what I used to feel. And the recovery is going to be on the harder side. I can go for a day here or there, but over the course of rounds, weeks, months, it just gets harder.”
