Tiger Woods withdraws from Dubai Desert Classic with bad back

Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the Omega Dubai Desert Classic ahead of his second round at Emirates Golf Club.


The 41-year-old American, who was playing in his second comeback tournament, has pulled out because of a "bad back".

In Thursday's opening round, Woods carded a five-over-par 77 which did not include a single birdie and left him outside the top 120.


The 14-time major winner arrived in the Middle East having missed the cut at the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego last week, where he was competing in his first official PGA Tour event for 17 months.

During the past couple of years, the former world No 1 has been sidelined with back pain and has undergone a series of operations.

He has also suffered from serious leg injuries and his plan to contest four tournaments in five weeks may now have to be curtailed.
