The former world number one, down to seventh in the rankings after 18 months without a victory, has entered the 5.7million event often referred to as the sport's unofficial fifth major. He missed this week's Wells Fargo Championship in Charlotte after suffering knee and Achilles problems during The Masters a month ago.
Last year at Sawgrass Woods withdrew six holes into the final round with a neck injury, but was way down the field at the time. "Looking forward to the competition next week," Woods told his Twitter followers in announcing his entry.
The former world No.1 has been sidelined with a sprained left knee and sore left Achilles' tendon, which he hurt while hitting a shot off pine straw near the end of his third round at the Masters. World number one Lee Westwood and number six Rory McIlroy, neither of them members of the PGA Tour this season, have both decided to skip the Players Championship.
He still fired a final-round 67 at Augusta National, tying for fourth, but sought treatment when the pain persisted. Doctors ordered rest and soft-tissue therapy, and swing coach Sean Foley told reporters that Tiger has been wearing a protective boot.
