At the Genesis Invitational, Tiger Woods will serve as “a playing host”

For his first competitive rounds in 2024, Tiger Woods has decided to play in the Genesis Invitational, which will take place the following week.

Wednesday was the day that Woods made the announcement on social media that he will be participating in the event that he is hosting and that is benefiting his TGR Foundation.

Woods commented, “Excited to be a playing host next week,” and he was right.

Since Woods withdrew from the 2023 Masters, he has only participated in one solo competition. In December, he competed in the Hero World Challenge, which was a no-cut competition, where he finished 18th out of 20 players. In addition, he and his son Charlie finished in a tie for sixth place at the PNC Championship that took place during that single month.

When Woods was involved in a car accident in February 2021 that resulted in serious leg injuries, he was attending the Genesis Invitational. The accident led him to sustain serious injuries.

In order to treat post-traumatic arthritis, which was brought on by injuries sustained in the accident, Woods underwent surgery on his right ankle two weeks after the Masters tournament that took place the previous year.

Since his lengthy collaboration with Nike came to an end last month after 27 years, this is going to be Woods’ first tournament since the alliance ended.

From February 15th to the 18th, the Genesis Invitational will be place at The Riviera Country Club, which is located in Pacific Palisades, California. It is one of the tournaments that has been scheduled for the PGA Tour in 2024, and it is anticipated that it will attract a top field of competitors who will compete for a portion of the twenty million dollar reward.

Woods, who is 48 years old, has made 14 appearances at Riviera, but he has never been victorious. 1999 was the year that he achieved his highest finish, which was a second place finish at the Nissan Los Angeles Open, which was the name of the event in the past. Last year, he finished tied for 45th place with a score of 283 that was one under par.
