Three time British Open winner Tiger Woods is to play in this year's championship for the 20th time but first since 2015, tournament organisers announced on Wednesday.
The 42-year-old American -- a 14 time Major winner -- returned to competitive golf this season after missing most of the previous two years through injury and finished tied for 32nd at last month's Masters.
"Three-time Champion Golfer Tiger Woods plans to tee it up at Carnoustie for The 147th Open after confirming his entry into golf's original Championship," read the statement from the organisers.
"The confirmation of the entry from one of the greatest golfers ever to grace the sport will delight fans around the world."
