Short answer: Yes. Vijay Singh is not playing in the Masters this year due to an injury.
Details:
- In 2025 he withdrew from The Masters after informing Augusta National officials that he was dealing with an injury, ending his streak of 31 consecutive Masters appearances.[1][2]
- Reports described the injury as undisclosed at the time, with several outlets confirming his withdrawal from the field.[2][5]
- He was slated to compete in his 32nd Masters start and had tied for 58th the previous year, but his injury prevented his participation in Augusta National in 2025.[5][2]
