Tiger Woods is a successful golfer and now he is going to try his hand at being a restaurant owner. On Tuesday Woods announced that he will be opening The Woods Jupiter: Sports and Dining Club in Harbourside Place. The restaurant will be part of a big development in Tiger’s hometown of Jupiter, Florida.
Woods described the restaurant as a place where “people can meet friends, watch sports on TV and enjoy a great meal.” Woods said he is excited about opening the restaurant for several reasons. “I look forward to enjoying my restaurant as much as I hope the public will,” he said.
The restaurant will be built in Harbourside Place, which will be a huge waterfront area with a lot of attractions, dining and hotels to enjoy. The area will also offer retail, office space, a public and private marina and a 15,000 square-foot amphitheater.

Woods said that he was happy to be able to build his restaurant in an area that is going to grow and bring in a lot of tourists and potential customers.
“I’ve been watching Harbourside Place’s development since it broke ground more than two years ago, and know that it is the perfect location for my sports and dining club,” Woods said.
He said he is also excited to see how the restaurant will help the community.
“I envision a place where people can meet friends, watch sports on TV and enjoy a great meal,” Woods told the Palm Beach Post. “I wanted to build it locally where I live and where I could help support the community.”
He did not give an opening date or offer any information about the items that will be available on the menu.
