Achilles surgery likely to rule Woods out of  Major championship season

Golf icon reveals another huge setback in a long list of injuries that have piling up from Woods dating back to 2002

TOUGH TIMES: Tiger Woods, who has undergone surgery for a ruptured Achilles.

In what has become a familiar refrain, Tiger Woods announced another significant injury and surgery on Tuesday that will likely scuttle yet another major championship season.

Woods, who has yet to compete in an official tournament since missing the cut at last summer’s Open Championship at Royal Troon, announced via social media that he suffered a torn Achilles tendon as he tried to prepare to play the Masters in April.
