Tiger Woods to Play Next Dubai Desert Classic | Book Holiday Accommodation in Dubai Early
World number one Tiger Woods confirmed on Sunday that he will compete at the 2011 Dubai Desert Classic, although Tiger has not participated in this tournament for the past two years.
However, has won there in 2006 and 2008 and has never finished worse than fifth in his five appearances at this prestigious tournament at The Emirates Golf Club.
“The level of competition has always been extremely high, so I know I’ll have to play my best golf if I’m going to regain my title,” Woods said.
“It’s a great venue, the course is always in immaculate condition and the weather reminds me of back home in Florida.”
Woods missed the 2008 event because he was recovering from knee surgery and saw young Rory Mcilroy win, and in 2009 he also missed, which saw Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez take victory.
During 2010, Woods private life has been much in the public, due to his adultery scandal.
Woods, will play in this week’s World Golf Championships event at Firestone Gof and Country Club, Ohio, and next week’s PGA Championship at Kohler, Wisconsin. Other than this, Woods has not mentioned any further plans, and said he hopes to play his way into the 2010 US Ryder Cup Team.
Tiger has won 14 major titles in is career, just four shy from the record held by Jack Nicklaus.
Mohamed Juma Buamaim, chief executive of Golf in Dubai said “We are naturally delighted and proud that Tiger Woods has agreed to join us”. He did not comment on how much the event had to pay Tiger to attend.
“For us to be able to welcome him to the Majlis Course for the sixth time in 10 years is a major boost for golf in the Middle East, especially Dubai.
“What they had done is phenomenal. I haven’t seen anything like this and I don’t think anyone anywhere around the world has seen this kind of growth,” Woods said.
“Golf is just one component of it. Since the time I have been coming over here, the skyline keeps changing, keeps evolving, and the people keep coming here and thoroughly enjoy it.
For those travelling to the event it is highly recommended to book your holiday accommodation in Dubai early. Hotels in Dubai can be very expensive and an alternative more practicle solution is to book self catering villas or apartments in Dubai.
Woods praised Dubai’s progress since his 2008 appearance. Tiger does have an interest in Dubai, and his company ‘Tiger Woods Design’ commened work in 2007 on his first golf course in Dubai but due to the current economic climate the work is on hold, despite over bn of cost reported to have already been spent to-date.
“From the time I first came to play here in 2001, I wanted to be a part of this amazing vision.”
Although Woods is currently world number 1, it is expected that this will change on Sunday after the Firestone Golf and Country Club where Mickleson or Westood could crown the golfing world.
Paul enjoys stays in self catering holiday villas and holiday apartments during his travels for both business and pleasure throughout Europe and Middle East and manages a number of holiday rentals worldwide at holidayrentalcentre.co.uk.
