The tournament is not on the officail PGA Tour calendar, but always draws top golfers and carries prize money of over 3.5 million dollars.

This would be Woods’ first golf appearance since the trouble golfing star announced he was taking an indefinite break from professional golf after admitting infidelity following a scandal that linked him to as many as 19 mistresses.

The 14-time Major winner said he would be focusing on stability now.

“Stability is something I haven’t had in years. It’s nice to make a swing and not have my bones move. Since I had a lack of ACL for a number of years, no matter what I did, it was always moving. So I’d try and hit into my left side but the more I did it, the more it would move. It’s nice to be able to hit into it for the first time,” he said.

The Golfer said he faced aplenty of discouragements in last several months but now he feels stronger than ever.

“There was no doubt that I would come back. Discouragement, yeah, there was plenty of that, especially the first few months. Anyone who’s been through an ACL reconstruction will tell you it’s not a whole lot of fun. But once you start feeling a little bit more explosive, a little more secure in the leg and the movements start coming back, you start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel,” he said.
