Tiger Woods announced on Monday that he will make his return to professional golf in late November at his own charity’s event, the 2017 Hero World Challenge.
Woods, who has not competed competitively in more than nine months, was just recently given the OK by his doctor to play and will compete along with 17 of his buddies in the Bahamas.
“I am excited to return to competitive golf at the Hero World Challenge,” Woods said in an announcement. “Albany is the perfect setting and it will be great to join this outstanding field.” By returning to competition at this event, Woods locks up an 18th place finish.
