Tiger Woods will look to return to form on Thursday. The 14-time major champion moves to the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio for the 2015 Memorial Tournament. Held from June 4-7, the event holds a $6.2 million purse, with the winner receiving a $1.1 million share.
Tiger Woods Returns to Action
It's been three weeks since Woods last featured on the Tour, finishing an unimpressive tied for 69th at the Players Championship. The former world No. 1 has five career wins at Muirfield Village, but none since 2012. The tournament, however, will serve as a stepping stone toward the U.S. Open at Chambers Bay on June 15.
The Favorites
In addition to Woods, who despite poor form should be considered a favorite to compete, Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson and Rickie Fowler have all descended onto Muirfield Village. Kevin Na, who finished second in last year's tournament, will also be in attendance.
Prediction
All eyes will be on Woods and Spieth, but Na has played exceptional golf this calendar year. With six top-10 finishes in his last eight events, the 31-year-old is primed to build off last year's disappointing finish.
