Tiger Woods will return to competitive golf later this month in the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas. Do you remember the last time Tiger played competitive golf? It was at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic back in February and it was ugly for Tiger, as withdrew after shooting an opening round 77.

The question for bettors is if they think Tiger has regained some of his previous form or if they think he is completely through.
