Tiger Woods will not compete in next month’s US Open as he continues to recover from recent ankle surgery.

The American had fusion surgery on a bone in his ankle in April to address post-traumatic arthritis from a previous fracture in the joint.

The former world number one did not participate in last week’s PGA Championship, the year’s second major.

Woods has kept a limited competition schedule after a 2021 car crash that required his leg to be rebuilt.

The US Open, which Woods won in 2000, 2002 and 2008, runs from 15-18 June at the Los Angeles Country Club in California.
