Woods has been on hiatus from the PGA Tour since withdrawing from the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines in early February.

The former No. 1 player is recovering from back ailments and has said he will not return until his game improves and he can be competitive.

On Monday, he fell out of the Top 100 in the world rankings for the first time since 1996.

The Masters begins April 9.
