He’s Back – Tiger Woods Will Be Playing In Dubai This Week
Tiger Woods is no stranger to the Golf Courses of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, having competed here and won many times. However, he hasn’t playing in Dubai since 2014. He most recently took a 16 month break from the game to have surgery but hasn’t recently returned to action and has shown signs of the Tiger of old. He has confirmed he will take part in the Omega Dubai Desert Classic at Emirates Golf Club from February 2-5, a tournament he won in 2006 and 2008.
