Tiger Woods says that he will “hopefully” play his first competitive round since his latest injuries at the Safeway Open on October 13.
He also is scheduled to play the Turkish Open and the Hero Challenge.
From his website:
Tiger Woods said Wednesday that he hopes to play in the Safeway Open, Oct. 13-16, at Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, California. Woods also intends to compete in the Turkish Airlines Open, Nov. 3-6, in Antalya, Turkey, and the Tiger Woods Foundation-run Hero World Challenge, Dec. 1-4, at Albany in the Bahamas. He will participate in the Tiger Woods Invitational presented by USLI, Oct. 10-11, on the Monterey Peninsula.
I thought that his first competitive round would be at Torrey Pines, a course that he has owned over the years. But perhaps he thinks that starting now puts him in the position to win, rather than just show up at Torrey Pines.
And of course, everything is just a warm-up for The Masters.
Can Tiger make a comeback? What is the definition of a comeback? I’d love to hear your opinions.

Tiger use to say he wouldn’t enter a tournament unless he could win. He clearly doesn’t feel that way now. I think he realizes it’s all about baby steps, but that his condition can flair up at any time now. Just look at Jason Day…quite a bit younger, but dealing with back issues. Tiger will need to stay healthy and play lots of tournament golf if he is to compete legitimately in a major again.
