ST. ANDREWS, Scotland – Expect to see Tiger Woods playing golf for a good long while.
“Retirement? I don't have any AARP card yet, so I'm a ways from that,” Woods, 39, said Tuesday at the Old Course, home to the 144th British Open beginning Thursday. “ … I'm still young. I'm not 40 yet. I know some of you guys think I'm buried and done, but I'm still right here in front of you.”
In his pre-tournament meeting with the media, Woods was asked if during his struggles with his game the past two years and tussles with his surgically-repaired back he considered calling it quits and giving up on his chase of Jack Nicklaus’ record of 18 major titles.
