While the Hero World Challenge has a hand-picked field and is not a PGA sanctioned event it does mark Tiger Woods' return to pro golf following a 15 month lay-off. This boutique tournament will be a good, yet unassuming test for Tiger to determine if he is ready to re-join the PGA Tour. Expectations are low yet anticipation is high for the former OWGR #1 player. Tiger desperately wants to surpass Jack Nicklaus's "majors" milestone and the clock is ticking, week after week, month after month, year after year. Shining a beacon of hope is Tiger's long-time friend and nemesis is Phil Mickelson who has won majors, most recently the Open Championship, in his 40s. Regardless of what we each may feel about Tiger's 'personal' life the vast majority of pro golfers and fans alike would be excited to see him return in early 2017.
