Woods to play at Buick Open

Tiger Woods has revealed that he intends to play in next month's Buick Open.

Sidelined with a knee injury since finishing second at The Masters, Woods also confirmed that he will host a golf clinic at Detroit's Comerica Park on June 24 - two days before the Buick Open begins.

Larry Beck, Buick's golf marketing manager, announced Woods' participation during a news conference on Monday morning.

"Tiger always creates a tremendous amount of excitement for us and the fans," Peck said. "It's the first time Tiger has ever done a clinic in a ballpark."

Following his runner-up finish to Trevor Immelman at The Masters last month, Woods underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee.

The world No. 1, Woods has claimed 13 major championships in his career, the last of which came when he successfully defended his title at the 2007 PGA Championship. Woods also is a two-time winner (2002, 2006) of the Buick Open.
