“As I began to ramp up my training and practice at home, I felt a sharp pain in my left Achilles, which was diagnosed as a rupture.
“This morning, Dr. Charlton Stucken from the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach, Florida, performed a minimally invasive procedure to repair the ruptured tendon.
“I’m now back home and will focus on my recovery and rehab. Thank you for all the support.”
Woods’ last appearance in an official PGA Tour event was in July. In recent years, he has played a limited schedule due to ongoing injuries.
