Woods remains on the sidelines
Despite indicating that he would like to be back for the Honda Classic, Tiger Woods will not be playing in his home town tournament next week.
The former world number one pulled out of the Farmers Insurance Open in early February citing a back injury.
At the time woods said that: “I’d like to play The Honda Classic…it’s a tournament in my hometown and it’s important to me…but I won’t be there unless my game is tournament-ready.”
However, the media director of the Honda Classic, Gary Ferman, confirmed that the 14-time Major winner is not amongst the list of players competing.
“His manager spoke to us this afternoon [Thursday] and told us that Tiger will not play next week,” said Ferman.
With the Masters at Augusta just seven weeks away, Woods now faces a race against time to get himself fit and in form
