"The scans determined that I had a collapsed disc in L4/5, disc fragments and a compromised spinal canal," Woods said in a social media post.

Tiger Woods said on Saturday he has had lumbar disc replacement surgery to address severe back issues, the latest setback in a string of injuries that have stalled his return to the PGA Tour.

The procedure leaves in doubt Woods' availability for part of, if not all of, the second season of TGL, the high-tech indoor golf league held in Palm Beach Gardens created by Woods and Rory McIlroy.
