It’s just 11 days till tee-off on December 5th in the 2024 Hero World Challenge at Albany in The Bahamas.
And the big question remains will tournament host Tiger Woods tee-up in the elite 20-player field?
Event organisers have named 17 players headed by World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and two other major champions in Keegan Bradley and Brian Harman.
What we are yet to be advised is who will be the three players to make-up the 20 and will TW be one of them.
Woods has contested only five tournaments this year and the last being the 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon.
WILL @TigerWoods TEE-UP 2024 #HeroWorldChalelnge ?
Our valued assistant @Grok believes this pattern of leaving a place for TW @TGRLiveEvents @HeroMotoCorp means he will tee-up
What do you think?
