Tiger Woods Enters US Senior Open Field but Decision Still Pending
Tiger Woods was not listed among the early group of confirmed players for this year’s US Senior Open, but his absence does not mean he is out of contention.
The 2026 event is scheduled to tee off on July 2 at Scioto Country Club in Columbus, Ohio, a course closely tied to Jack Nicklaus, who learned the game there.
The United States Golf Association has already announced a list of exempt players, including defending champion Pádraig Harrington.
Woods, a 15-time major champion, became eligible for the senior circuit after turning 50 last year. He has previously expressed interest in competing, noting that the availability of golf carts could help ease the physical demands created by his history of injuries.
Although he was not included in the initial announcement, Woods has formally entered the championship.
A spokesperson for the USGA told Golf Digest, “Tiger has entered the championship, simply to ensure eligibility, but will not make a decision about playing until a later date.”
This is a developing story.
