Is Tiger Woods playing 2025 PGA Championship? Status of 15-time major champion


The highly anticipated 107th PGA Championship is set to kick off on Thursday, and it's been confirmed that 15-time major champion, Tiger Woods, will not be participating at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. Woods is still recovering from a ruptured left Achilles tendon he sustained in March 2025.

Woods returned to the PGA Championship last year after missing the tournament in both 2021 and 2023 due to injury, but he missed the cut. He has won the PGA Championship four times and is one of only two players to have won the tournament back-to-back. Woods' victories came in 1999, 2000, 2006 and 2007.

Although Woods is absent, the field is not short of star power. It features Rory McIlroy, who won the 2025 Masters, along with world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and defending champion Xander Schauffele, all of whom have their own impressive records aiming for the Wanamaker Trophy.
