The Honda Classic got a big boost in player notoriety as local residents Rory Mcllory and Tiger Woods both committed to playing in the event held at PGA National.


Ranked number one and two in the world respectively, Mcllroy and Woods join a high profile field featuring other local residents such as Lee Westwood (Old Palm Resident), Rickie Fowler, Dustin Johnson, Keegan Bradley (Loxahatchee river residents), and many other of the top names on the PGA tour.


Last year, Woods and Mcllroy battled it out on the final day as Woods shot an eight-under 62 including an eagle on 18 but came up two shots shy of the victory.


Tiger Woods released a statement on his website announcing his return to the Honda Classic. “I’m excited to be playing in The Honda Classic again,” Woods said. “It’s a really good tournament, and it does a lot of the community. I like the golf course, and I came pretty close last year. It’s part of a busy stretch for me, and I want to continue playing well.”


In addition to the Honda Classic, Woods also committed to playing the WGC Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona and the WGC Cadillac Championship which is held at the Blue Monster in Doral as he prepares for the Masters.
