Tiger Woods said he's still processing his mother's death and won't play in this week's Genesis Invitational at Torrey Pines Golf Course, which would have teed off just nine days after Kultida Woods' death.

Woods was scheduled to play his first official PGA Tour event since The Open, but he said Monday that he won't compete after all and is 'still processing' his mom's death.

Woods, the tournament host of the Genesis Invitational, said he hoped to be at Torrey Pines later in the week and “appreciate the continued kindness since my Mom’s passing.”
