Tiger Woods is set to play The Masters at Augusta, with the tournament added to the 15-time major champion's schedule.
The five-time Masters champion was included on the list of players set to compete at the first men's major of the year, with the news confirmed on his website on Friday.
Woods practised at Augusta National on Sunday and will speak to the media at 4pm on Tuesday as part of the pre-tournament press conferences.
The 15-time major champion last played competitively at the Genesis Invitational in February where he was forced to withdraw midway through the second round due to influenza.
Woods has not spoken publicly since the withdrawal, where he had made his first appearance of 2024 and just his seventh at an official PGA Tour event since The Masters in November 2020, with Woods playing a limited schedule due to injuries in recent seasons.
But the American is now set for a 26th appearance at The Masters. He made the cut at Augusta last year to tie the tournament record for consecutive cuts made, but had to withdraw before the third round because of plantar fasciitis.
Wall-to-wall coverage from the tournament begins at 2pm over the first two rounds on Thursday April 11 and Friday April 12, with Featured Group action and regular updates from around the course available to enjoy on Sky Sports Golf until the global broadcast window begins at 8pm.
There will be lots of extra action throughout all four days via the red button on Sky Sports Golf, along with Sky Q and Sky Glass, providing plenty of bonus feeds and allowing you to follow players' progress through various parts of Augusta's famous layout.
The notorious Amen Corner stream will also be available and focuses on the famous three-hole stretch from the 11th, while a feed of the fourth, fifth and sixth holes will go live each day as soon as the opening group reach that part of the course.
Another stream covering the 15th and 16th hole is also available for every round, while extended coverage of the weekend action begins at both 3pm on both Saturday April 13 and Sunday April 14.
Sky Sports Golf will show build-up content and occasional live updates from the course before the global broadcast window starts at 8pm for the third round and 7pm for the final day, with early action available throughout via the red button.
