There was no Tiger Woods at this week’s Genesis Invitational but the 15-time major winner has admitted he has some big plans for 2025.

Woods was initially going to tee it up at Torrey Pines but the passing of his mother meant he took a step back before coming in for the final day to be part of proceedings and present Ludvig Aberg with his winner’s trophy.

For Woods, simply getting back out on the golf course feels like a major success at times, given the injuries he’s had.

Of course, Woods still fancies himself as being able to win on the PGA Tour, even as he approaches 50.

And after making his way into the CBS commentary booth for round four, Woods revealed some exciting news about his latest comeback.

Tiger Woods drops latest update on 2025 golf comeback

As always, it was refreshing to get Woods’ verdict on a number of golf matters.

And after Woods spoke about Rory McIlroy and then revealed information about a potential LIV and PGA merger, the 82-time winner then spoke of his plans for 2025.

“My goal is to play more and I haven’t played, so I have got to work on that,” Woods said. “This process was unexpected so I will get back after it and look forward to playing some bigger events.”

Tiger Woods’ plans for the Champions Tour

While Woods will continue to play the majors and the big events on the PGA Tour event, he is eligible for the Champions Tour next year.

Indeed, there are even suggestions Woods could change the format entirely to suit him when he does join.

“Tiger’s going to be eligible for the Champions Tour in two years, you’ve got one product which could conflict with the other one. If Tiger goes to the Champions Tour, and I’ve heard, again, rumours, nothing but rumours, that Tiger’s going to play a full schedule,” golf announcer Gary McCord has said.

“They’re going to take that schedule down from what they’ve got now, which I think is 25 or 26 tournaments, to 15 and he’s going to play in them all as part of the process of Tiger being on the board now and in a position, and basically it’s going to sound like the Tiger tour and see if people watch the Champions Tour as it evolves into the biggest name who’s ever played the game.”

Hopefully, we see Tiger competing in 2025 more than he did in 2024. And with a bit of luck, he even puts himself in contention to win the odd event.
