Tiger Woods confirms his participation in the Genesis Invitational 2024

It was an open secret, however now it’s official. Tiger Woods confirmed this Wednesday by way of his social networks that he’ll play subsequent week’s Genesis Invitational, a match by which he’s personally concerned and which takes place on the legendary Riviera Nation Membership in Los Angeles. It is going to be Tiger Woods’ first match because the Hero World Problem within the Bahamas and his first official look on the PGA Tour because the Masters.

It was an open secret as a result of Tiger himself had been saying it because the finish of final 12 months, particularly since he performed the PNC Championship together with his son Charlie and the match within the Bahamas. Bodily he appeared significantly better and though his golf, as is logical, was not precisely constant (he completed third from final within the Bahamas, solely forward of Will Zalatoris and Wyndham Clark), he did supply flashes of high quality. In any case, the most effective factor about these two weeks is that his ankle barely harm him and he was capable of stand up to the 4 rounds fairly naturally given his circumstances.

In reality, Woods assured these days that his purpose was to play kind of one match a month, which interprets into making an attempt to compete within the 4 Majors and a few match right here and there just like the Genesis Invitational, maybe the Arnold Palmer, the THE PLAYERS or the Memorial. We should see if he is ready to full that formidable schedule.

Tiger already performed the Genesis final 12 months and made the minimize. He completed in forty fifth place. Curiously, he has by no means received at Riviera, one of many few programs, of these he has performed so much in his profession, that eludes him.

By the way in which, Tiger’s return comes with an additional incentive: to examine the garments he’s going to put on. As you already know, after a lifetime he broke with Nike and, in idea, he’s going to make use of his personal model developed by TaylorMade. We are saying in idea as a result of it’s information that has emerged within the US media and that, for now, has not been confirmed by the events.
