I'm Just Trying to Get Better, Says Struggling Woods
KOHLER, Wisconsin — Tiger Woods, still striving to find consistency with his game, is in unusual territory as he heads into this week's PGA Championship with his PGA Tour season all but over and his world ranking in freefall.

The greatest player of his generation has plummeted to a mind-boggling 278th in the global pecking order, and looks almost certain to miss the four season-ending FedExCup playoff events because of his poor form.
