MIAMI (Reuters) - Tiger Woods has committed to playing in next week's Arnold Palmer Invitational on Wednesday in what will be his final tuneup ahead of the U.S. Masters.
Woods, who has not won a tournament since the Australian Masters in 2009, will try to end the title drought on one of his all-time favourite layouts having won six times at the Bay Hill Club and Lodge, including four straight from 2000.
"I've always loved playing there," Woods said on his website (www.tigerwoods.com.). "It's just so cool. It's as good as it gets."
