Professional golfer Andrea Pavan, 36, fell three stories down an elevator shaft in Stellenbosch, South Africa, sustaining injuries to his shoulder and back that required surgery. The Italian, who was set to compete in the Investec South African Open, has withdrawn from the event and is recovering in hospital. In a statement released Friday, Pavan expressed gratitude for the support he has received.
Tiger Woods provided a puzzling response about his return to competitive golf during a TGL match broadcast on Sunday night. The 15-time major winner, recovering from back surgery, suggested he is ready for a member-guest event but is absent from this year's Seminole Pro-Member. Speculation points to the Masters as his likely first start of 2026.
