Tiger Woods withdrew from this week’s Genesis Invitational, saying he’s “just not ready” to play so soon after his mother’s death last week.

Woods made the announcement Monday in a post to social media.

“I planned to tee it up this week, but I’m just not ready. I did my best to prepare, knowing it’s what my Mom would have wanted, but I’m still processing her loss,” he said in a post to X.

Woods said he hoped to make an appearance at Torrey Pines, the site of this year’s tournament in San Diego that he hosts with his foundation. The event was moved from Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades in the aftermath of the wildfires in Los Angeles County.

Woods announced Friday that he would make his season debut in the tournament, three days after the death of his mother, Kutilda Woods.

Woods, 49, has not competed in an official PGA Tour event since The Open in July, but he has played in the PNC Championship with his son, Charlie. He also has competed in his new TGL simulator golf league.
