As the 2026 PGA Championship tees off at Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania, golf fans are once again asking the familiar question: Where is Tiger Woods?

The answer, unfortunately, remains uncertain. Woods will not be playing in this week's major championship, marking another absence from the sport's biggest stage.

This comes as no surprise to those following his journey. Woods also missed the Masters earlier this year, and his return to competitive golf remains unclear as he focuses on personal matters away from the course.

According to reports, Woods entered a treatment program in Switzerland following his arrest in March on suspicion of DUI. His priority right now is clearly his health and well-being, not his golf swing.

It's a strange sight for longtime fans. For decades, major championships meant Tiger Woods versus Phil Mickelson, two titans battling for glory. But this week, both legends are absent from the field. Mickelson is also sitting out his second consecutive major of the year.

While the current stars of the game are putting on a show at Aronimink, it's hard not to feel the shift. The era of Woods and Mickelson dominating the headlines has given way to a new generation. For now, all we can do is wait and hope for Tiger's return—whenever that may be.
