Tiger Woods will be sidelined indefinitely after undergoing surgery for a ruptured left Achilles tendon on Tuesday, the golf superstar said on social media.

The 15-time major champion, who hasn’t teed it up since the Open Championship last July, said he was diagnosed after feeling a “sharp pain” in the tendon when he was practicing.

His latest injury setback comes less than a month before the first major of the year, the Masters at Augusta National.
