It’s been a big week for Tiger Woods.
On Monday, it was officially announced that he and Rory McIlroy would take on Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas in the latest edition of Capital One’s The Match. On Tuesday, it was reported that McIlroy finished second to Woods in the PGA Tour’s lucrative Player Impact Program for 2022. On Wednesday, Woods announced he would be playing in his 2022 Hero World Challenge.
Last month Woods released the names of the first 17 players who will tee it up Dec. 1-4 in Albany, Bahamas, including the likes of defending champion Viktor Hovland, world No. 2 Scottie Scheffler and past champions Jon Rahm (2018), Hideki Matsuyama (2016) and Jordan Spieth (2014). Woods, Kevin Kisner and Tommy Fleetwood complete the 20-player field for the event which benefits Woods’ TGR Foundation, the Tavistock Foundation and the Bahamas Youth Foundation.
I am excited to announce that I will be in the field for this year’s #HeroWorldChallenge. A big welcome to @K_Kisner and @TommyFleetwood1 for joining us as well. See you soon at Albany!
