Tiger Woods will not play in this week's Chevron World Challenge, which he has hosted in Thousand Oaks, California, for the past nine years, because of injuries sustained in a car accident. The American world number one, who has dominated news headlines since crashing his SUV outside his Florida home in the early hours of Friday (November 27) morning, said he would not attend due to injuries sustained in the accident. The $5.75 million event, which has been won four times by Woods, starts Thursday with a strong field featuring 12 of the world's top 20 players.
