MARANA, Ariz. - Expect to see Tiger Woods as part of NBC Sports’ coverage this weekend, even if though he's not playing.
In the most anticipated return to golf since Ben Hogan recovered from a car accident, Woods ended an eight-month hiatus due to knee surgery at the WGC Accenture Match Play Championship on Wednesday.
Woods won his first match Wednesday, but fell to Tim Clark in the second round on Thursday.
NBC Sports' coverage on Saturday and Sunday is from 2-6 p.m. ET both days.
“We will have to deal with showing what happened to Tiger because this has gone from being a golf tournament to a news event,” said Tommy Roy, the golf producer at NBC. “There’s a lot of people who aren’t going to be able to watch his play on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, if he makes it that far.
“People tuning in on the weekend, we’ll document whether he’s out or he’s still alive,” Roy said. “We’ll make sure they have a chance to see that. There’s a definite buzz about golf and about this event that we know will carry over to the weekend.”
Even though Woods is already out, his return has worked out well for NBC.
Woods likely will next play the CA Championship at Doral or the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill — maybe both — which are broadcast by NBC Sports.
CBS Sports, the tour’s other network, will get its first crack at Woods at the Masters, which gets the highest ratings of any golf tournament.
