Tiger Woods will begin his 2019 season at the Farmers Insurance Open on a Torrey Pines course that has yielded incredible success for the American.
The former world number one is chasing an 81st PGA Tour title at a venue that has hosted about 10% of those wins.
The last of Woods’ 14 majors came at Torrey Pines in 2008, with his US Open triumph part of a four-year undefeated streak on the California course.
“It’s great to be back,” said Woods, now ranked 13th in the world.
The 43-year-old, who will head out for Thursday’s opening round alongside Tony Finau and Xander Schauffele, is coming off the back of a win on his most recent official start at the Tour Championship in September.
