Woods Confirms He’ll Tee-Up In 2023 Hero World Challenge

The more than seven month wait will be over later this month – Tiger Woods is returning to competition.

Yes, after being spotted earlier this week on the Albany course in The Bahamas, Woods has advised officials he feels fit enough to take his place in the elite 20-player field for the Hero World Challenge being held from November 30th through to December 3rd.

His confirmation in this year’s Hero World Challenge was released via the PGA Tour’s ‘X’ page.

The now 47-year-old Woods has been side=lined from competition since withdrawing after making the halfway cut in the Masters.

Speaking earlier this month Woods explained that he was pain free in his ankle but was still struggling with other injuries to his body.

Woods said: “My ankle is fine. Where they fused my ankle, I have absolutely zero issue whatsoever. That pain is completely gone. It’s the other areas that have been compensated for.”

He compared the problem to when he had fusion surgery on his lower back, saying: “All the surrounding areas is where I had all my problems and still do. You fix one, others have to become more hypermobile to get around it, and it can lead to issues.”

Thc present World No. 1307 is a five-time winner of the Hero World Challenge – 2001 to 2011.
