Following Tiger Woods' debut in the TGL League, created by him and Rory McIlroy in partnership with the PGA Tour, fans are wondering what the next step is for the seasoned golfer.

Tiger is eager to perform, but he is aware that he cannot return lightly, until the back injury is completely healed. The popular golfer confirmed via his website that he will miss the Genesis Open next week and the Honda Classic.
When can we expect his return? Tiger is constantly in talks with doctors, who advise him that it is necessary to continue the treatment and rest his back. Although he expected to return to golf courses earlier, he needs patience this time, just like many times in his career.
"My doctors have advised me not to play the next two weeks, to continue my treatment and to let my back calm down," Woods said, as quoted by ESPN.
"This is not what I was hoping for or expecting. I am extremely disappointed to miss the Genesis Open, a tournament that benefits my foundation, and The Honda Classic, my hometown event."

It was expected that Tiger will perform at the Genesis Open in Los Angeles, but looking at the current situation, Tiger will also miss this competition this time, run by the Tiger Woods Foundation. It's hard to say exactly when Tiger will return, but from this perspective, it seems that the Valspar Championship could be the tournament where he will compete next time.
Last night we had the opportunity to watch Woods make his debut in the TGL league. Although he didn't impress with his performance, just like his team, the experienced golfer made the fans and TV viewers laugh, and he looked in a great mood, motivated to play this competition.
It is noticeable that TGL is not a competitive league, but rather entertainment that fans have been missing all these years.So far they are getting good ratings
