Tiger Woods is trying out some new courses.

The top golfer announced Tuesday he is opening a Florida restaurant called The Woods Jupiter: Sports and Dining Club next year.

A statement issued by developer Allied Capital and Development of South Florida says the property is still in the works, but is expected to be a 5,900-square-foot restaurant. It's likely to open in the first quarter of 2015.

Woods said in the statement that he envisions ''a place where people can meet friends, watch sports on TV and enjoy a great meal.''
