Woods, currently ranked 22nd in the world rankings, has yet to fire on the course this year with just one top-10 finish coming in his first event of 2020 at the Farmers Insurance Open.
In his six starts since then, Woods has finished no better than tied 37th and he missed the cut in his last competitive start at the US Open two weeks ago.
Woods did, however, team up with Justin Thomas to defeat Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose in the inaugural Payne's Valley Cup match last week.
The 15-time major champion will now start to prepare to defend his Masters title this November and he has confirmed he will tee up at the ZOZO Championship from October 22 to 25, where he will also defend despite switching from Japan to the United States (Sherwood Country Club) - a venue Woods has enjoyed great success on in the past.
