Tiger appears ready to give it a go at Players
ORLANDO, Fla. -- After missing this week's Arnold Palmer Invitational with a neck strain, it appears Tiger Woods will try to compete at the Players Championship later this week.
The PGA Tour said Sunday that a news conference has been scheduled for Tuesday morning following a nine-hole practice round at TPC-Sawgrass.
Woods, 43, withdrew from the Arnold Palmer, a tournament he has won eight times, on Monday, citing a neck strain for which he had "been receiving treatment, but it hasn't improved enough to play. My lower back is fine, and I have no long-term concerns, and I hope to be ready for the Players.''
