As tournament host, 15-time major champion Tiger Woods will attend the 2026 Hero World Challenge, but he hinted he could also feature.

Woods underwent his seventh back surgery in October 2025, and he was teasing a 2026 Masters return as he teed off in TGL late March. But just days after he teed off in the indoor simulator league, the 82-time PGA Tour winner was arrested on DUI suspicion when he flipped his Land Rover near his home in Florida.

He hasn’t played a competitive round of golf since the 2024 Open Championship, and many are anticipating a return for the legendary 50-year-old, whether it’s on the PGA Tour or the PGA Tour Champions.

“Well, I'm feeling better, there's no doubt about that,” Woods told the PGA Tour’s Sirius XM radio. “I've been training quite a bit. I will be at Hero [World Challenge]. I'm there either way, so I'll see you there.”

Woods is the host of the exclusive tournament, and four-time PGA Tour winner Kevin Kisner revealed on the Fore Play podcast that the 50-year-old could be planning a potential return in 2026 and that includes a full TGL schedule on Jupiter Links.

"Tiger wanted to play a full schedule,” said Kisner.

"Rob (McNamara), Tiger's guy, he texted me a long text last week, I think, just telling me what they did on their decisions, how they were moving around and what players are going to do."

Kisner also mentioned that Woods is anticipated to enter both the Hero World Challenge and the PNC Championship this December, aiming ultimately to participate in the 2027 Masters.

Woods has faced numerous injuries in recent years, and his severe car accident ultimately forced an extended hiatus from both competitive golf and public appearances.

Woods, in a battle to save both his relationship with Vanessa Trump and his career in golf, spent time in a rehab center in Switzerland. Woods looks noticeably healthier in recent appearances, and a comeback appears somewhat close.

The five-time Masters winner recently appeared alongside ex-wife Elin Nordegren as their son, Charlie, officially committed to Florida State University.
