Tiger Woods confirmed for JP McManus Pro-Am in Adare

THE ORGANISERS of the JP McManus Pro-Am have confirmed that Tiger Woods will participate in this summer's tournament at Adare Manor Hotel and Golf Resort.

The 15-time Major champion, who returned to competitive golf at the Masters last weekend, has played in the three previous JP McManus Pro-Ams, the last in 2010.

This year's event, which was postponed in 2020, takes place on July 4 and July 5 at the 2027 Ryder Cup venue. 

Commenting on the announcement that Tiger Woods will travel to Adare in July, Pro-Am host JP McManus said: "Tiger has been a great friend and avid supporter of the Pro-Am for a very long time and we are absolutely thrilled he has committed to play once again in the tournament. His presence at Adare Manor will undoubtedly bring huge excitement to the thousands of spectators and we are very grateful to him for giving up his free time to be with us. We’d also like to sincerely thank all our players, the DP World Tour, volunteers, and ticket cap holders for their continued support of the event as we endeavour to raise vital funds for charities in the region.”
