Whenever a golf major arrives, fans wonder what Tiger Woods is up to.

The 2026 PGA Championship has arrived this week, and the field is loaded with golf's current stars.

As far as Woods, though? It's less clear what he's up to.

Is Tiger Woods playing this week in the PGA Championship?

No, Woods is not playing in the PGA Championship this week at Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania.

According to ESPN:

"It is believed that he entered a treatment program in Switzerland following his arrest in March on suspicion of DUI."

Woods didn't play in the Masters, and it's not clear when he may return to his golf career. 

He's currently focusing on his life away from the course.

Along with Woods missing this week, Phil Mickelson is out, too, as Lefty also misses the first two majors of the year.

Clearly, it's a new era. Woods and Mickelson were the highlight names at majors for so long. But right now, neither are taking part.
