In the middle of nowhere, hope floats for Tiger Woods. Ready to unfold in the arid settings of the Albany Championship Golf Course, the Hero World Challenge will showcase the 14-time Major winner’s recovery from injury, which kept him out since August last year. Watching him chip effortlessly on Monday, the first impression was that the former world No 1 was at ease and raring to get back where he belongs, among the best. Tiger spent considerable time at the course on Monday, even playing nine holes with Rio Olympics gold medallist Justin Rose. A five-time winner, Tiger last featured in the $3.5 million tournament in 2014 at the Isleworth Golf and Country Club in Windermere, Florida.
