Tiger Woods recently made his first public appearance since his horrifying accident earlier this year. Moreover, he was also seen practicing in the range last week. With rumors of a return on the rise, Woods ended the suspense, as he took to Twitter to confirm the news that he will be competing at the PNC Championship next week.
