The 15-time PGA major champion has announced that he will not participate in this week's Hero World Challenge, which he hosts in the Bahamas. Woods mentioned that he does not feel as sharp as he needs to be following his procedure and recognizes that he still has a long way to go before he can compete effectively with the world's best golfers.

Tiger Woods is not playing in the 2024 Hero World Challenge due to a variety of nagging injuries. On Tuesday, while holding court as host for his annual tournament in the Bahamas, the 15-time major champion expressed uncertainty about his return to the golf course following a sixth back surgery this September.

Woods will not play this week's Hero World Challenge, and he still doesn't know for certain when he'll be able to tee it up again.
