- Dr. Sheeraz Qureshi and his team at the Hospital for Special Surgery performed lumbar disc replacement surgery on Tiger Woods on Friday 10 October 2025, and his team said it was successful.
- After reporting pain and loss of mobility, Tiger Woods said scans revealed a collapsed disc at L4/5, disc fragments and a compromised spinal canal, leading to his seventh back surgery and second this year.
- An 82-time PGA Tour winner, Tiger Woods has made only sporadic starts since his February 2021 car crash, appearing in just 11 events and limited competition this year.
- It is now unclear when Tiger Woods, 15-time major champion, will return to PGA Tour competition, and December plans like the Hero World Challenge and PNC Championship with son Charlie are in doubt.
- Woods turns 50 on 30 December 2025, and recovery from lumbar disc replacement typically takes around 3 to 4 months, with his next appearance possibly later this year.
