AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the 2023 Masters. The 15-time major champion had made the cut on the number, then struggled in the opening holes of his third round Saturday.
The third round of the Masters was cut short by rain that soaked the course. Wind and plummeting temperatures made the east Georgia course feel like an Open Championship venue. Woods is still feeling the effects of a catastrophic February 2021 car wreck, and he has indicated that cold weather is a hostile enemy to his reconstructed leg.
Combined with the steep inclines of Augusta National, it's apparent that the challenge proved too much for Woods to handle. Whether he opted not to play out of an abundance of caution or whether he felt injured when he awoke Sunday morning isn't clear.
