Tiger Woods will return to competition this week alongside Jason Day at the Hero World Challenge.
Woods, a five-time winner of his event, and Day are scheduled to tee off at 12:15 p.m. ET Thursday at Isleworth Country Club in Windermere, Fla.
Other groups of intrigue include Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed, who will play together for the first time since they went 2-0-1 in their Ryder Cup debuts at Gleneaagles. Spieth is coming off a victory last week at the Australian Open.
Orlando residents Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose are slated for the final tee time. Two weeks ago, Stenson won the European Tour’s season-ending DP World Tour Championship to return to No. 2 in the Official World Ranking.
Good friends Bubba Watson and Rickie Fowler will also play together in Round 1.
Tee times for the 18-man event are expected to run from 11:35 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. during each of the four rounds.
