Tiger back for the Masters

It’s being reported all over the place that Tiger Woods will be playing at The Masters this year. Many speculated that he would come back to golf fairly quickly, maybe even for the PGA Championship in August, but to be coming back this quickly is certainly a surprise.

From the article:

“The major championships have always been a special focus in my career and, as a professional, I think Augusta is where I need to be, even though it’s been a while since I last played,” Woods said. “When I finally got into a position to think about competitive golf again, it became apparent to me that the Masters would be the earliest I could play.”

This news will certainly bring some excitement to the Masters, which is now less than a month away, and may spark Masters Badges sales as fans take advantage of lower than usual ticket prices.
