LOS ANGELES — Tiger Woods will miss this year’s Open golf Championship at Royal Liverpool as he continues to recover from the ankle surgery he had in April, Sports Illustrated reported.
The 15-time major champion underwent fusion surgery on a bone in his ankle to address post-traumatic arthritis from a previous talus bone fracture days after he withdrew from the Masters.
The 47-year-old, who has won the Claret Jug three times, also missed last month’s PGA Championship and the US Open underway in Los Angeles, so he will not play in a major competition again this year.
