Tiger Woods may not be teeing it up this week in Atlanta, but that doesn’t mean he’s not thinking about the PGA Tour’s season finale.
The 82-time winner on Tour took to Twitter on Wednesday to wish luck to the 30 players competing in this week’s Tour Championship, the final of three events in the Tour’s season-ending FedEx Cup Playoffs. In true Tiger fashion, he also had to remind everyone just how well he’s played in the event.
Accompanying the tweet is a 58-second video that shows highlights from his win in 2007 – where he carded a front-nine 28 – and his win in 2018, including when Larry Fitzgerald stopped a media scrum to watch Woods make an eagle on his phone.
Good luck to everyone this week at the @playofffinale. Lots of good memories at East Lake! pic.twitter.com/dFcSg1dbl2

Woods has three Tour Championship wins, but only two at East Lake in 2007 and 2018. His first win at the event came in 1998 in his second year on Tour at Champions Golf Club in Houston. East Lake has been the tournament’s exclusive host since 2004, with several courses hosting between 1987 and 1996. From 1997-2004, the Tour Championship alternated between Champions and East Lake.
