Woods is Ready for Action
Tiger Woods said he feels fitter than ever ahead of this week’s WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona.
The 14-time major winner has been out for eight months after reconstructive surgery on the knee.
The tournament, which begins on today, will be Woods’ first since winning the US Open at Torrey Pines last June.
The 33-year-old ended his 2008 campaign after revealing he had played with a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and a double stress fracture of the tibia below it.
But Woods has been back practising at full power in Arizona and said the signs are looking good.
Woods will face Australian Brendan Jones in the first round on Wednesday, and the world number one will be wary as he has lost to Australians three times in this tournament.
Peter O’Malley beat woods in the first round in 2002 and Nick O’Hern got the better of him in the second and third rounds in 2005 and in 2007.
