Tiger Woods wants Americans to stay sharp ahead of Presidents Cup in December in Australia

Tiger Woods wants the eight players who made his Presidents Cup team and four more under consideration as captain’s picks to play tournaments and stay sharp over the next three months leading to the December matches Down Under.

Left unclear was whether that applies to the captain if Woods decides to pick himself.

Woods said he told prospective Presidents Cup players at a meeting two weeks ago how important it was to be committed to the team and to the event.

“And that means playing and being prepared,” he said during a conference call Monday evening.
