The PGA TOUR heads to Albany in The Bahamas for the Hero World Challenge in what is an exceptionally strong field on New Providence Island. 82-time PGA TOUR winner Tiger Woods returns for the first time since teeing it up at the Masters Tournament seven months ago. He made two TOUR starts earlier this year, finishing T45 at The Genesis Invitational before making the cut at the Masters. Woods says he is pain-free coming into the tournament after his ankle fusion in April. Viktor Hovland will also be at Albany to defend his title once again as he aims for a three-peat. The reigning FedExCup champion has not teed it up on the PGA TOUR since his triumph at East Lake Golf Club, but he played twice on the DP World Tour this fall, finishing T5 at the BMW PGA Championship and T2 at the DP World Tour Championship. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will tee it up for the first time since the Ryder Cup. Scheffler has finished second at the Hero World Challenge the last two years. Max Homa also returns to action with a run of five-straight top-10s on the PGA TOUR. He’s finished in every top-25 since missing the cut at the Travelers Championship in June. Others to look out for are Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler, Jordan Spieth and Collin Morikawa.
