Tiger Woods Skips TGL Semifinal as Masters Plans Remain Uncertain

His absence narrows his pre‑Augusta tune‑up options to the Hoag Classic on the senior tour.

Overview

  • TGL confirmed Jupiter Links will field Max Homa, Akshay Bhatia and Tom Kim against Boston Common, with Rory McIlroy set to play and Woods not in the semifinal lineup.
  • Woods is still listed in the Masters field without a declared return date, keeping his participation at Augusta unconfirmed less than a month out.
  • He did not enter the PGA Tour ChampionsCologuard Classic, leaving the Hoag Classic (March 22–29) as the lone remaining Champions Tour start before the Masters, where carts are permitted.
  • Social posts reported his Gulfstream jet at Augusta Regional on March 14, a sighting that could indicate a scouting trip or unrelated reasons such as his son Charlie’s Sage Valley event or TGR Design work, which remain unconfirmed.
  • Woods, 50, is recovering from L4–L5 disc replacement surgery in October 2025 after a March 2025 Achilles operation, has said he is progressing and hitting full shots inconsistently, and PGA Tour Champions leadership says the circuit is prepared for him whenever he returns.
