Tiger Woods Withdraws From PGA Championship After Third-Round 79

[AZProgressive]

TULSA, Okla. – Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the PGA Championship.

The PGA of America announced the decision early Saturday evening following the conclusion of the third round of play. Woods, earlier, shot 79 – his highest score ever at the PGA Championship – to fall into a tie for 76th place, last in the field.

Woods, 46, was playing in just his second official tournament since suffering multiple injuries to his right leg, ankle and foot in a February 2021 car crash. He finished 47th at the Masters last month.

In considerable pain Friday, Woods shot 69 to make the cut and was lauded for the effort. But with cold temperatures greeting him Saturday, Woods struggled, making just one birdie and a triple bogey and seven bogeys.

1. and i'm sure it's because of his leg.......NOT......he just stunk of the joint with his play.....

and sorry to all the Tiger lovers......he needs to just stop playing professionally. JMHO. Great and happy he made the cut, but his play is off.....

2. He Was Limping Badly On Saturday

So, it WAS the leg.
However, I agree with you that he's done.
By the time he gets to the point where he's in only moderate pain, he'll be nearly 50.
He needs to pack it in.
