Tiger Woods says he ruptured his Achilles tendon, an injury that will keep him out of the Masters

Associated Press  

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Tiger Woods had a less invasive surgery for a ruptured Achilles tendon on Tuesday, which will keep him out of the Masters and leaves in question whether he can play in any other major championship the rest of the year. He said he had a minimally invasive Achilles tendon repair for a ruptured tendon that the doctor said went smoothly. Two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer had a tear in his Achilles tendon last year that kept him out for three months. Woods also has played his TGL indoor circuit, the 18-hole Seminole Pro-Member last week and a round with President Donald Trump a month ago.
