WINDERMERE, FLORIDA - Tiger Woods will not play in next week's AT&T National as he continues to recover from injuries that have kept him sidelined since the Players Championship.

Woods made the announcement on his Twitter feed. The AT&T National supports Woods' foundation and this year will be played at Aronimink Country Club outside of Philadelphia.

"Doctor's orders: sitting out the attnational," he wrote. "I'll be in Philly to support the event. Feeling stronger every day, but not 100%."

Woods injured his left knee and left Achilles' tendon during the third round of the Masters. He skipped the Wells Fargo Championship, withdrew after nine holes of the Players Championship and also sat out the U.S. Open.

The former world No. 1 has not indicated if he will play at the British Open next month.
