Tiger Woods smiles during practice ahead of this week's Zozo Championship at Sherwood Country Club.
Last October, Tiger Woods won the inaugural Zozo Championship, earning his 82nd career PGA Tour title to tie Sam Snead for the all-time win record. Woods is set to defend this week—albeit under unusual circumstances—and looking to grab the victory mark outright from Snead.
As for those unusual circumstances, the event—the tour’s first regular tournament in Japan—has had to move this year to the U.S. due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. Woods and the rest of the elite 78-player field will be competing at Sherwood Country Club outside Los Angeles, site of Woods’ World Challenge tournaments from 2000-2013.
Joining Tiger are several tour stars including FedEx Cup winners such as Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Justin Rose and Jordan Spieth. Also competing are the likes of Phil Mickelson, Hideki Matsuyama and Rickie Fowler. Two young guns are making their Zozo debuts: PGA Championship winner Collin Morikawa and U.S. Open runner-up Matthew Wolff.
All told, 25 of the top 30 players in the Official World Golf Ranking—and eight of the top 10—are teeing it up at the Zozo. The only two missing members of the top 10 are Dustin Johnson, who withdrew on Monday after testing positive for COVID-19 before last week’s CJ Cup, and Bryson DeChambeau, who doesn’t plan to play again until next month’s Masters.
The winner will receive 500 FedEx Cup points and a $1.44 million share of the $8 million purse.
