Golfing icon Tiger Woods may not return to competitive action until 2026 after undergoing surgery on a ruptured Achilles tendon.

The 15-time major winner sustained the injury while training at home ahead of a potential comeback at next month’s Masters at Augusta National.

Dr. Charlton Stucken, who performed the surgery, reported that the procedure went smoothly, with Woods expected to make a full recovery.

However, no definitive timeline for his return has been established. Consultant physiotherapist Sammy Margo emphasized the severity of the injury and noted the lengthy recovery process, particularly for a professional athlete of Woods’ age.

“This isn’t a minor sprain; this is a serious breakage,” Margo explained.

The setback marks yet another chapter in Woods’ storied career, which has been marred by numerous injuries, including a near career-ending car accident in 2021.

Despite his resilience, Woods has struggled with a limited playing schedule in recent years, completing 72 holes in only one of the five official events he started in 2024.

The 49-year-old had planned to participate in last month’s Genesis Invitational, a tournament he hosts, but opted to take time off following the death of his mother.

With his 50th birthday approaching in December, Woods will soon be eligible for the senior tour, where he could potentially compete using a buggy if necessary.

Despite the challenges, Margo expressed confidence in Woods’ dedication to his recovery. “He’s obviously going to dedicate himself to his recovery and is doing all he can, but you cannot defy nature,” she said, highlighting the slower healing process at his age.

Woods’ fans remain hopeful for yet another remarkable comeback, but patience will be key as the golfing legend embarks on his recovery journey.
