TIGER INDIA-BOUND FOR A PRIVATE MATCH THAT WILL EARN HIM A FEW DOLLARS MORE
FROM THE GOLFWEEK WEBSITE
Tiger Woods won't be going back to the U.S. directly after Sunday's final round of the Omega Dubai Desert Classic.
The World No. 1 says he will be heading to India for the first time.
But it's still all business, as he'll be playing a non-public, 18-hole match with Pawan Munjal, the CEO and managing director of Hero Motor Group, according to the Associated Press. The company makes motorcycles and scooters.
The match will take place at the Delhi Golf Club, also the site of the Indian Open.
“(US PGA Tour pro) Arj (Arjun Atwal) has been asking me to come to India, but somehow it never happened. Now it has,” Woods told GolfXYZ.com.
“Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, finally going to go (to India) for my first time.”
Woods says he met Munjal at the Tavistock Cup in Orlando, Florida.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Tiger's appearance fee at a tournament is somewhere in the region of $3million, give or take a $million or two. So Woods will make more from this trip to India than the vast majority of tour pros make in a season, maybe in their golfing careers! Nice "work" if you can get it.
