Tiger Woods will not be participating in the 2009 Chevron World Challenge as scheduled, citing injuries sustained from his one-car accident that occurred last week.

"I am extremely disappointed that I will not be at my tournament this week," the acclaimed golfer said. "I am certain it will be an outstanding event and I'm very sorry that I can't be there."

"We support Tiger's decision and are confident the strong field and excellent course will provide an exciting week of competition at the Chevron World Challenge," said Greg McLaughlin, Tiger Woods Foundation President & CEO.

The tournament will be held at the Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California and will begin on Wednesday, Dec. 2 and run through the weekend.

The pro golfer is reported to have suffered from facial lacerations following the accident. Woods has yet to speak with authorities about the crash -- with charges reportedly pending.

  • Tiger's wife knocked the hell out of him and car!! Why do you think he's not cooperating with the cops....if he did he would have to lie to them about the staged accident and get himself into a deeper mess with charges of a false report to police..that's exactly why he is not talking to them.....I wouldn't either!!

  • I believe he is ashamed of his face. I'll bet he look worst than Rihanna. Hope some body at the hospital took pictures of his beat up face and leak them out.

  • No one has any true idea what happened, yet you are willing to trash his wife, his life and all he did was crash his vehicle into a tree. It's not like he killed or even harmed anyone but himself. You are pathetic if you are so envious of success that you destroy a decent man aho earned everything he has! Shame on you!

  • Probably because his face is swollen, busted lips and a concussion from the beating he got from his wife. This is getting swept under the rug.
