Tiger eye on Hero

TIGER WOODS has announced he will return to action in next month’s Hero World Challenge.

The 15-time Major champion has not played since The Open Championship in July.

But yesterday he confirmed his involvement in the 20-man tournament, which is due to take place from December 1-4 in the Bahamas, via social media.

Woods, who has won the self-hosted PGA Tour event five times in the past, is joined by Kevin Kisner and Tommy Fleetwood in making up the three remaining unfilled spaces.

Woods will also partner Rory McIlroy in ‘The Match’ against Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas on December 10 when the seventh version of the exhibition challenge will take place in Florida.
