The Hero World Challenge, hosted by Tiger Woods, is a 20-man event at Albany with some pretty good silly season money on the line. The four-day, 72-hole, stroke-play tournament is contested at Albany Golf Club in Nassau, Bahamas, Dec. 5-8. This will be the 10th year that Albany has hosted.

It's not the news most golf fans wanted but it's probably not surprising. On Monday afternoon, Tiger Woods announced on social media that he will not compete in the upcoming Hero World Challenge, his annual bash in the Bahamas.

The 20-man field for the 2024 Hero World Challenge has had some updates this week. The first bit of news came from tournament host Tiger Woods, who announced he would not be able to play in his annual bash in the Bahamas.

Tiger Woods makes his return to competitive golf this week as he tees it up at the Hero World Challenge. The 15-time major champion was last seen at the Masters in April, when he withdrew during the third round and subsequently underwent ankle surgery in a bid to address his latest injury issue.
