WOODS GETTING BACK INTO THE GROOVE
Former world number one Tiger Woods on Monday said he was starting to enjoy golf again after a spate of injuries, with a strict training regime helping him regain his speed and distance.
Now ranked 56 after going off the boil following lurid revelations about his private life, the 14-time major champion said he was having fun, but refused to comment on the racist slur against him by ex caddy Steve Williams.
“I’ve had a broken leg, a torn Achilles, and strained ligaments over the last five years,” he told Melbourne’s Triple M radio station, having made clear ahead of the interview he would not be taking questions on Williams.
“I’ve been rehabbing for so long I haven’t been able to train. “Now I’m starting to get going, I’m starting to do all my explosive training again”.
“I’m hitting faster, more explosive, my speed’s come back. I’m hitting the ball distances,” Woods said.
