Tiger Woods Makes Surprising 2020 Announcement
Tiger Woods made a surprising 2020 announcement this week.
Coming off a 2019 campaign that saw the 44-year-old win his 15th major tournament, Woods seems to have pumped some momentum back into his career.
In 2020, the most recognizable name in golf will look to build on his 2019 Masters performance and continue to make his way up the rankings.
On Thursday, Woods announced the first two tournaments he planned to participate in this year.
Excited for this season to begin @FarmersInsOpen and @TGRLiveEvents’ @thegenesisinv, our first year as an invitational. See you soon west coast.https://t.co/BgwZz9Bc7j

The first will be the Farmer’s Insurance Open in San Diego, due to take place from Jan. 23 to Jan. 26 at Torrey Pines. The second will be the Genesis Invitational from Feb. 13 to Feb. 16 at Riviera Country Club.
Any time Woods plays, the fanfare surrounding those particular tournaments is always off the charts. There is no reason to expect things to be different this time around.
Regardless of whether Woods wins or loses, any time he participates in events, it is always great for the sport.
