Tiger Woods has officially been ruled out of this month’s PGA Championship after the 15-time major champion was not included in the field for the second major of the year.
The PGA of America confirmed the entry list the event at the Quail Hollow Club, live from May 15 on Sky Sports Golf, with Woods a notable absentee as he continues to recover from injury.
Woods was widely expected to sit out of the event, a tournament he has won four times, having undergone surgery on an Achilles injury in March and already missed The Masters.

Rory McIlroy will arrive chasing back-to-back major titles and a third PGA Championship victory, a month on from becoming just the sixth player in the men's game to complete the career Grand Slam.
McIlroy is already a four-time winner at the North Carolina venue, which traditionally hosts the Truist Championship - previously called the Wells Fargo Championship, while Xander Schauffele returns as defending champion after last year's record-breaking victory.
Schauffele carded the lowest 72-hole total in men's major history to claim a one-shot victory last year over Bryson DeChambeau, who won the US Open a month later and is one of at least 15 players from the LIV Golf League scheduled to tee it up.
World No 1 Scottie Scheffler won the AT&T Byron Nelson earlier this month and is chasing a third major victory, while Jordan Spieth has another opportunity to claim the only missing major required to complete the career Grand Slam.
