Watch: Tiger Woods receives rousing ovation on walk toward 18th green at The Open
Tiger Woods made it clear on Tuesday that the 150th Open Championship wouldn't be his swan song. He did, however, indicate that the competition could very well be his final Open at St. Andrews, as due to the R&A's rotation, the major likely won't be back at the "home of golf" until 2027 when Woods will be 51 years old.
After a difficult opening-round 6-over par on Thursday, the 15-time major victor carded a three-over par on Friday and officially missed the cut for weekend play. As Woods approached the 18th green, he became emotional.
According to ESPN's Mark Schlabach, it might be a few months before fans see Woods back on the links.
"Golf fans might not see Woods, a 15-time champion, competing again until late November, when he hosts the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas, which benefits his foundation and other charities," Schlabach wrote.
