Sad to say I’m missing the Masters. Thanks to the fans for so many kind wishes. http://t.co/Ofbre9VHEL

It appears that Tiger Woods’ back injury is bad enough to keep him out of the Masters, so it must be really bad if he’s already ruling himself out almost two weeks beforehand. A lot of fans are going to be very disappointed and this will only raise more questions as to whether or not Tiger will ever catch Jack Nicklaus. Maybe this is an elaborate April Fools Prank??
UPDATE: If he’s actually undergone or undergoing surgery, it is most certainly not a prank. How about no more real news on April Fools Day?
This will be the 1st time since 1994 that Tiger Woods will not be at Augusta. He has now missed all 4 majors due to injury.
