Tiger Woods Makes His Return To Golf This Week
The 2014 Hero World Challenge travels to Isleworth Golf & Country Club, Dec. 3-7, welcoming an elite 18-player field that includes five-time champion and host Tiger Woods, defending champion Zach Johnson, 2014 Masters Tournament winner Bubba Watson and an impressive roster of players from both sides of the 2014 Ryder Cup.
"We are thrilled about the depth and talent of our field, and I'm looking forward to another exciting year of competition at Isleworth, a course I love," Woods said. "It's great to welcome Hero Motocorp as the tournament's title sponsor. Their global presence will elevate our event to the next level."
The Hero World Challenge is a four-round, 72-hole stoke-play event with a $3.5 million purse and players competing for a $1 million winner's share. The unique showcase, which awards Official World Golf Ranking points, will be held at the challenging par-72, 7,354-yard Isleworth Golf & Country Club for the first time in the tournament's 16-year history.
The field of 18 PGA TOUR players is determined as follows: the current four major winners, the top 11 available from the Official World Golf Ranking, the defending champion and two special-exemption players. This year's special exemptions are Steve Stricker and Keegan Bradley.
