Woods teeing off Wed. night (ET) for Dubai event

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Danny Willett will finally get his chance to meet Tiger Woods when the two join Matthew Fitzpatrick for the first two rounds of the Omega Dubai Desert Classic.

“I’ve not actually met him properly,” Willett said Tuesday at Emirates Golf Club. “You know, Ryder Cup was brief walking past but before that, you know, you see him to say ‘hello' but nothing really.”

The threesome tees off on the 10th hole Thursday at 8:15 a.m. local time (11:15 p.m. ET Wednesday) and will go off the first hole Friday at 12:35 p.
