I may never play again, fears Tiger Woods

Former world number one Tiger Woods insists “with all my heart” he does not want his career to be over, but admits he is reconciled to the possibility.

Speaking ahead of the Hero World Challenge, the 18-man tournament hosted by his foundation, Woods said he did not know when he would be able to play again after a third back operation in the space of 19 months in October.

And the 39-year-old has now expanded on his fears for the future in a wide-ranging interview in Time magazine, insisting he won’t undergo more surgery and being able to participate in the lives of his two children is more important than golf.
