The 14-time major champion missed the cut at last week's PGA Championship with back spasms, a week after he withdrew from the World Golf Championships event in Akron with similar trouble.
Even so, US Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson said on Monday he would still consider making Woods a captain's pick for the team to face Europe in September — if the ex-World No 1 one was sure he was healthy.
