Tiger finishes season with his tail between his legs

7:14 am on 14 October 2011

Tiger Woods has admitted he's grateful to have been invited to take part in a golf tournament he hosts - next month's World Challenge event in California.

Woods only just kept his place in the world's top 50 last month, which was high enough to qualify for an exemption into the final tournament of his winless season.

The former world number one's blaming injury for his poor form but says he really appreciates the invitation to play this tournament.
