Tiger Woods has revealed he will miss this month’s US Open because of injury.
The former world number one suffered a sprain to his left knee and mild strain to his left Achilles tendon during the third round of the Masters in April.
“I am extremely disappointed I won’t be playing in the US Open [16-19 June],” Woods, 35, stated on his website.
“But it’s time for me to listen to my doctors and focus on the future. I was hopeful I could play, but if I did, I risk further damage to my left leg.”
Woods, who has played in every US Open since 1994, sustained the injuries when hit his second shot from under the Eisenhower tree at the 17th at Augusta. (BBC)
