2025 Hero World Challenge tee times, TV coverage, viewer’s guide

Scottie Scheffler will have yet another chance to make a bit of golf history this week, as he can become the first golfer to go back-to-back-to-back at the Hero World Challenge. After winning the previous two Bahamas events by a combined nine(!) strokes, Scheffler is the heavy favorite of the 20-player field to win the Tiger Woods-hosted event once again.

Of course, the Albany tournament attracts the best the sport has to offer. Scheffler will be teeing off against recent U.S. Open champ J.J. Spaun, fellow top-10 pros like Robert MacIntyre and Harris English, plus upper-echelon talent such as Keegan Bradley, Justin Rose and Sepp Straka. When your tournament invites are Jordan Spieth, Akshay Bhatia and Billy Horschel, you know you’re in for some good golf.

New Providence, Bahamas, Bahamas
  • Best in Country

Host of Tiger Woods’ Hero World Challenge on the PGA Tour since 2015, the Albany Golf Club designed by Ernie Els opened in 2010 and balances a mix of links and desert features. The golf course is located seven minutes from Nassau International Airport on the island of New Providence and is a perfect blend of championship caliber golf with a resort atmosphere. The course is known for its snaking waste areas and rolling dunes dotted with sprouts of native grass that accompany many of the holes.

Scheffler tied the tournament scoring record last year with a 25-under 263 total, besting runner-up Tom Kim by six shots. That helped allow him to become the first golfer since Tiger Woods to spend an entire calendar year ranked No. 1 in the world. (By the way, he’s done that again here in 2025.)

This week’s winner will receive a $1 million cut of the $5 million purse. No FedEx Cup points will be handed out, but World Ranking points are awarded.
