Tiger Woods will compete in The Players Championship
We now know when Tiger Woods will play next on the PGA Tour.
Woods announced on Twitter on Friday that he’ll compete in two weeks at The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.
This will be Woods’ first appearance at The Players since 2013, when he won the event for the second time (2001). Woods didn’t play in the event last year as he was recovering from a microdiscectomy procedure on his back on March 31.
The 14-time major champion finished T-17 at the Masters two weeks ago, which marked his first tournament after taking two months off to find his game. Jack Nicklaus said he spoke with Woods at Augusta National, relaying that Woods indicated to him that he’ll play in his Memorial Tournament in early June. Woods is a five-time champion of the event.
