AP – Tiger Woods is returning to some form of competition. He says he will be playing next weekend in Orlando, Florida, at the PNC Championship with 12-year-old son Charlie.
The PNC Championship is a 36-hole event involving family members.
It will have been 298 days since Woods’ right leg was badly damaged when his speeding car went through a median and rolled down a hill on a road in the Los Angeles suburbs.
Although it’s been a long and challenging year, I am very excited to close it out by competing in the @PNCchampionship with my son Charlie. I’m playing as a Dad and couldn’t be more excited and proud.

Woods was hitting balls last weekend in the Bahamas during his Hero World Challenge.
He said he might play the odd “hit-and-giggle” event. This would be one of them.
