PGA Tour Champions pro Tommy Gainey believes Tiger Woods will compete on the Senior Tour this year. His comments came amid rumors of the 15-time major champion joining the Senior Tour.
Woods has not competed in a professional event for over a year. The star golfer hasn’t had strong returns in the events he played, but after he turned 50 last month, there have been talks that he might compete on the PGA Tour Champions.
Recently, Tommy Gainey spoke to SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio’s Colt & Drew on Gravy & The Sleeze, where he was asked if Woods would compete on the Senior Tour.
“I do think he’s going to play out here,” he said. “I mean, there’s been rumors that he’s going to play out here. I don’t know if any of the fans out in golf and TV land or radio land have seen, but he signed a deal with Insperity. You could see it on his sleeve, so that’s good news.”
“Insperity has a tournament on the PGA Tour Champions, so I’ll let people think maybe what they want to think. But that tells me that if he’s able to play, he’s going to play in that one.”
Gainey added that he would want Tiger Woods to be healthy first and then would like to be paired with him in the final round.
“That would be like a dream come true because everybody knows he was the man on the PGA Tour,” he continued. “He moved the needle, in my opinion. And I’m just so happy that he’s 50 because he’s going to bring more eyes to the PGA Tour Champions, and that’s never going to hurt.”
