(Reuters) - Tiger Woods will take the next step on his comeback this week at the Dubai Desert Classic, a step that just a few months ago he was not at all sure he would be able to take.
He had not played on the PGA Tour since August 2015 and went though back surgery in September and again in October of that year. His recovery was long and painful.
