Tiger Woods has accepted a special exemption to play in the US Open at Pinehurst next month.
The 48-year-old, a 15-time major winner including three US Opens, does not qualify automatically after his five-year exemption for winning the 2019 Masters ran out earlier this year.
He has struggled to compete since suffering severe leg injuries in a car crash in 2021 and has played only two tournaments this year.
Woods has said he hopes to play one tournament a month this year. He qualifies automatically for the US PGA Championship later this year as a former champion. The championship begins on 13 June.
