SYDNEY, Australia -- Tiger Woods will play the Australian Open in November one week before the Presidents Cup, his first appearance in Sydney since his first year as a pro. Golf Australia announced Monday that Woods would compete at The Lakes in Sydney on Nov. 10-13 against a field that already includes defending champion Geoff Ogilvy, Dustin Johnson, Bubba Watson and Presidents Cup captains Fred Couples and Greg Norman. The Presidents Cup is the following week at Royal Melbourne. Woods, who has been out the last three months with injuries to his left knee and Achilles, is No. 26 in the Presidents Cup standings. The top 10 Americans qualify for the U.S. team on Sept. 18, although Couples is likely to take Woods as a captains pick if his game appears to be in good shape. The announcement is a sign Woods feels confident his leg is fully healed and he expects to play in the Presidents Cup. The 14-time major champion has plunged to No. 28 in the world -- his lowest ranking since he was No. 33 at the start of the 1997 season -- and has gone 20 months since his last win at the 2009 Australian Masters in Melbourne. Twelve days after that win, he crashed his car into a fire hydrant outside his Florida home, the start of a stunning unravelling of his personal life that led to him be exposed for multiple extramarital affairs. He was divorced in August 2010. Woods returned to Australia last year and tied for fourth in the Australian Masters. He last played in Sydney in the 1996 Australian Open, where he opened with a 79 and rallied to tie for fifth. It was his ninth tournament as a pro. "I havent played in the tournament since 1996, and Im anxious to return," Woods said in a statement released by Golf Australia. "I have a great affinity for playing golf in Australia and Im looking forward to competing against an outstanding field." Woods last appearance in Australia generated capacity crowds for the Australian Masters as well as high levels of security and intense media scrutiny. The PGA of Australia is expecting record crowds and TV audiences for its major events this year. "Tigers presence in Australias most prestigious tournament will further enhance what is certain to be a huge summer of Australian golf," PGA of Australia chief executive Brian Thorburn said. It once appeared unlikely for Woods to play in the Australian Open. IMG runs the Australian Masters and had lobbied hard to have that tournament held the week before the Presidents Cup, the premier spot on Australias golf calendar this year. Organizers instead gave the date to the Australian Open, which is golfs fourth-oldest championship. That changed, however, when IMG did not renew the contract of Woods agent, Mark Steinberg, who also ran IMGs golf division. Steinberg now works for Excel Sports Management. cheap jerseys from china .
