Tiger Woods Next Tournament: Golfer Will Play Before 2022 Open Championship

Tiger Woods’ next tournament is only a few months away, at the latest. The golfer intends to play in Ireland’s JP McManus Pro-Am from July 4-5.

After making his return at this year’s Masters, Woods said he would compete in the 2022 Open Championship. Woods said he was unsure if he would compete in the PGA Championship, which is the next major on the schedule.

The Open Championship is set for July 14-17.

“Tiger has been a great friend and avid supporter of the Pro-Am for a very long time, and we are absolutely thrilled he has committed to play once again in the tournament,” McManus said in a statement. “His presence at Adare Manor will undoubtedly bring huge excitement to the thousands of spectators, and we are very grateful to him for giving up his free time to be with us.”

Woods’ comeback at Augusta came just 13 months after he nearly lost his leg in a single-car accident. The 15-time major champion made the cut before finishing in 47th place. Woods struggled in the final two days of the Masters, though his overall performance was an encouraging sign for future PGA events.

The early betting odds give Woods a better chance than all but 20 golfers to win the 2022 Open Championship. The event will take place at St. Andrews in Scotland, where Woods has won the Open two times.

Woods last won a major at the 2019 Masters. He has participated at the JP McManus Pro-Am three times.

Woods said he only plans to only compete at the biggest PGA events.
