Woods finished tied for third in the European Tour event last year, two shots behind winner Robert Rock of England who he shared the lead with after 54 holes of play. World number one Rory McIlroy has also signed up to play in the $2.7 million event at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club which starts on January 17.
“I’m excited to compete again,” Woods said in a statement on his website. “Hopefully my good practice sessions will carry over.” The world number three will then head back home to compete in the US PGA Tour’s Farmers Insurance Open which starts on January 24.
