Tiger is Back: Woods to Tee it up at the Hero World

Tiger Woods has committed to play in the Hero World Challenge on November 30th.

Tiger will tee it up a month before his 48th birthday – exercising host exemptions for the event. A simultaneous update occurs in the form of a withdrawal from Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele. Lucas Glover and Justin Rose have swiftly taken their place in the roster.

As we declare that the comeback is officially on, this is the first time Woods has teed it up since he withdrew from the Masters, subsequently undergoing subtalar fusion surgery.

He has been seen in recent weeks carrying the bag for his son, Charlie, who was successful at the state championship representing his high school golf side. He was also spotted hitting drivers in the last couple of days, before heading on down to the Bahamas for the Hero World.

The field will contain eight of the top ten players in the world, with Viktor Hovland heading down as the defending champion and arguably best player in golf right now. The viewing figures will likely soar now that Tiger is in the field, making his first start since April.

Patrick joined us in May 2022 with a strong passion for the game and a writing style to match. He is a good golfer, originally from Cumbria in the UK, and now living in British Columbia, Canada. He focuses on writing opinion pieces while keeping up to date with LIV Golf, Tour events and Major championships, providing good insights into the professional game. His best golf memories are shooting 72 with a double on 18, running the Golf Society at Lancaster University, and steering them to the first ever Varsity win against rivals York. His favorite club is his Scotty Cameron Newport 2.0, and his favorite event is the Masters!
