Tiger Woods dusted off his clubs again for the first time since his shocking first round exit from the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship at the hands of Thomas Bjorn.
The WGC event at Dorral didn’t show Tiger Woods at his best either. Woods had two bad shots - hitting a 122 yard drive on the second hole, which did not even reach the ladies' tee, and then hitting a three wood off the 14th tee, making only 188 yards. However, the second shot 3 wood which carried 245 yards to near the front edge of the green made up for his previous errors.
Good to see that we mortals are not the only ones who can produce bad shots!
Woods’ games haven’t been all bad, with glimmers of a recovery which came at the Dubai Desert Classic, when Woods hit a tremendous 66 in the second round. But two days later, following a 72 and a 75, he found himself well down the leader board and involved in a spitting storm.
Woods unlucky streak is turning into a regular occurrence, as the former world number one has now fallen down to fifth in the rankings, having not won for 16 months and without even a top ten finish in his appearances this season.
Will Woods return to his former glory? Woods is rather blasé when thinking about this "When will I win again? Whenever it happens, it happens. I'm just going to keep trying to progress.”
With all this in mind, will Woods be ready for April's Masters? A tournament he has won on four occasions, the last of which came in 2005
