Following his anticipated press conference that is to take place on Friday morning, Tiger Woods has plans to report back to rehab.
PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem wrote a letter Thursday explaining the timing of events to take place in the days to come.

"I cannot stress how strongly our board felt that this should be open to all media and also for the opportunity to question Woods," GWAA president Vartan Kupelian said.
"The position, simply put, is all or none. This is a major story of international scope. To limit the ability of journalists to attend, listen, see and question Woods goes against the grain of everything we believe."
