Tiger Woods Update: Golfer Announces Return, Will Play 3 More Events In 2022

Tiger Woods is ready to play his first tournament since missing the cut at the 2022 Open Championship in July. The famed golfer announced Wednesday that he'll be returning to the course at the upcoming Hero World Challenge.

The Hero World Challenge is scheduled to take place from Nov. 28 through Dec. 4 in the Bahamas. Woods hosts the annual tournament, which raises funds for his TGR Foundation.

It's been four months since Woods last played in a tournament. With 2022 coming to a close, the 15-time major winner is set to compete in three events before Christmas.

One week after the conclusion of the Hero World Challenge, Woods will be part of The Match VII. Woods and Rory McIlory will team up to take on the pairing of Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth on Dec. 10.

There have been six editions of The Match, which debuted as a one-on-one competition between Woods and Phil Mickelson four years ago. Recent editions of The Match have included former athletes, featuring the likes of Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers and Stephen Curry and Charles Barkley. Woods was last part of the event in 2020 when he and Manning defeated the team of Mickelson and Brady.

The third and final event on Woods' 2022 golf schedule is the PNC Championship. Woods will be one of 20 major champions who team up with a family member. The 2022 PNC Championship is scheduled for Dec. 15-18 at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, Orlando, Grande Lakes.

Last year's PNC Championship marked Woods' return to competitive golf from the single-card accident that nearly ended his career. After skipping every major tournament in 2021, Woods competed at the 2022 Masters, PGA Championship and Open Championship.

Woods' best performance was a 47th-place finish at the Masters.
