Tiger Woods’ invitation-only PGA Tour event in The Bahamas is attracting a very strong field.

The full field of 18 tour players has been confirmed for this week’s 2018 Hero World Challenge, which will be held at tony Albany in New Providence from Nov. 29 to Dec. 2.

The fourth edition of the event features 16 of the top 28 players in the world, including world number one Justin Rose, Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Rickie Fowler and Tony Finau, among others.

Woods, who won the Tour Championship at the end of the 2018 PGA Tour season, will also be in the field.

Woods was one of the early investors in the Albany development, which includes a golf and real estate component.

He began his 2017 golf comeback at last year’s edition of the tournament.
