A week after confirming that he will be playing at the Home of Golf this summer, Tiger Woods added another date to his schedule.
Less than one month ago it seemed entirely possible that we would never see Tiger Woods in competitive action ever again.
But, after he made a sensational comeback at the Masters last week, he revealed on Sky Sports that he would tee it up in the 150th Open on The Old Course in July and now his summer schedule has been added to.
"I am looking forward to St Andrews," he said after making the cut at Augusta National. "That's very dear to my heart. I've won two Opens there and it's the Home of Golf.
"It's my favourite golf course in the world so I will be there for that one."
The 15-timer major winner has now announced that he will be playing in the JP McManus Pro-Am at Adare Manor, a two-day event 4th and 5th July.
We are over the moon to announce that Tiger Woods will be playing in the 2022 JP McManus Pro-Am. 🙌

The charity event hosted by Irish racehorse owner McManus, will also include Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka in the field.
Woods has made three previous starts in the tournament which is hosted by the 2027 Ryder Cup venue.
"His presence at Adare Manor will undoubtedly bring huge excitement to the thousands of spectators," said McManus.
"We are very grateful to him for giving up his free time to be with us."
