Love hopes to see Woods on Champions Tour
The Straits Times
|November 21, 2025
Tiger Woods has given no timetable for when - or even if — he will return to competitive golf, but at least one close PGA Tour friend hopes to see the 15-time Major champion on the course soon.

Woods had back surgery on Oct 10, which will prevent him from participating in the Hero World Challenge, the Dec 4-7 event he hosts. He is also not in the field with his son Charlie for the Dec 18-21 PNC Championship, which they have played together five times.
Shortly thereafter, Woods will turn 50 on Dec 30. That makes him eligible to compete on the Champions Tour beginning with the season-opening event in Hawaii from Jan 22 to 24.
