The full list of where you could see Tiger Woods play golf in 2020

Sentry Tournament of Champions (Jan. 2-5)
Farmers Insurance Open (Jan. 23-26)
Genesis Invitational (Feb. 13-16)
WGC-Mexico Championship (Feb. 20-23)
Arnold Palmer Invitational (March 5-8)
Players Championship (March 12-15)
WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Championship (March 26-29)
The Masters (April 9-12).........plus more

Final notes
If you include the Zozo Championship he won in October, that is 18 official PGA Tour events. That doesn't include the Olympics, and if Woods makes it to Tokyo, expect there to be some juggling to bring the total down by an event or two. All of this, of course, is subject to health and fitness.
As for the fall of 2020, after the PGA Tour season has concluded, there is the potential for the Ryder Cup (Woods is currently fourth in the U.S. standings with a very limited number of events counting), a possible title defense in Japan, with some sort of made-for-TV event added in again, and the Hero World Challenge.

James Wiseman leaves Memphis, to enter NBA draft
The James Wiseman era at Memphis has ended after just three games. Wiseman, who has missed the past seven games due to a 12-game suspension stemming from an NCAA investigation and was set to return at South Florida on Jan. 12, announced on Instagram on Thursday that he will leave the program, hire an agent and prepare for the 2020 NBA draft. Wiseman is currently ESPN.com's projected No. 3 pick in the upcoming draft. In three games with Memphis (9-1), he averaged 19.7 points, 10.7 rebounds and 3.0 blocks. The 7-foot-1 center was suspended after the school admitted that Penny Hardaway made an $11,500 payment to Wiseman's mother in 2017 before accepting the head-coaching job at his alma mater.
