Tiger Woods is keen to win the Stonehaven Cup trophy at the Australian Open in Sydney in October.
Woods said he was impressed by the history and feel of it, and he would love to add his name to the champions list there.
He said this year's tournament had 'an amazing field' and he was really looking forward to it.
Woods has slipped to 29th in the world having not won since the 2009 Australian Masters.
He hasn't visited Sydney since 1996 when he tied 5th.
