It's win or pack up for the season as far as Tiger Woods is concerned at the Wyndham Championship.
The PGA Tour's regular calendar of events for 2015 reaches its conclusion in Greensboro and Woods will need to pull out all the stops if he is to extend his campaign and qualify for the four-event FedEx play-offs which begin next week at The Barclays.
The former world No1 languishes 292 points behind Charl Schwartzel, who is 125th on the PGA Tour's money list and currently occupying the final FedEx play-off spot. Woods, who has missed five cuts in 10 events this year and has just two top-20 finishes to his name, essentially needs to record his first win since 2013 to move into the qualifying zone although second place on his own may be good enough too. Given his on-going trials and tribulations, however, it is an almighty task.
Woods will be making his first appearance in the Wyndham Championship and officials are estimating that his presence will bring an additional 5000 to 10,000 spectators through the gates.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
