Welcome to the Clubhouse with Shane Bacon.

I'm your host Shane Bacon.

Yes, that sound you hear is everyone rushing to the websites, Expedia and such, trying to get flights to Napa.

Tiger Woods has officially announced.

He's made it absolutely official.

He's back.

He is back on the PGA Tour.

Tiger will be playing the Safeway next week in Napa.

I had to do an emergency pod this Friday just to talk a little bit about Tiger and expectations

and what we should see next week when we get this guy back.

It's been 411 days since he played a PGA Tour round. 1,139 days since the last top 5 on the PGA tour.

1,160 days since his last win. 3,046 days since his last major. Those are big numbers, but he is back.

And he's taking the appropriate time away.

I think that's extremely important.

I have Bob Perig coming up from ESPN.com.

Great golf rider, great golf insider to talk a little bit about Tiger and what we're expecting coming up.

I mean, you know, we've seen them have some great rounds.

We've seen them play really well, really the last time we saw him out on the PGA tour. He finished in the top 10, and of course, haven't seen him this year. But saw him last week at the Ryder Cup, and now we get Tiger Woods back, swing golf clubs. Who knows what golf clubs

those will be or how his swing looks or how far he's hitting it. Yes, Ruparnovic sure thinks he's been playing some great golf, but exciting stuff. I mean, the offseason is here, and we get one of the biggest golf stories of the year.

So golf not done yet in 2016, but I wanted to tell you first this Friday, surprise,
