Woods does return after injury

Tiger Woods made a successful return from injury in the event of Tavistock Cup team two days in Florida.

But the number one of the ancient world joined Justin Rose in a best ball 63 round nine under par for team of Albany at Lake Nona in Orlando, Florida.


The event concludes Tuesday with a format of trazo-juego singles.


Masters: 1997, 2001, 2002, 2005


US Open: 2000, 2002, 2008


Open: 2000, 2005, 2006


US PGA: 1999, 2000, 2006, 2007

The team of Albany, the defending champion, finished the day in third place at 23 low, behind Isleworth in 26-bass and Lake Nona hosts two shots further back.


Woods will play in the Bay Hill Invitational event that starts on Thursday before the first major of the year, the Masters, which begins April 5.


"I want to be ready for Augusta," said four-time Masters champion Woods. "I have to do the right thing." Unfortunately, there are times when I played when probably it should not hold and has cost me.


"I have done before and he played through not only pain, but injury and I go back a little." That is what I did last year and lost two majors because of it.


"I did the smart thing and prudent thing this time, so am in a week."

Presidents Cup defeat for Woods

Woods has so far failed to score a point for the United States Tiger Woods lost his second match but the US lead the International team 7-5 after day two of the Presidents Cup.


Woods and Dustin Johnson lost by one hole to Australians Aaron Baddeley and Jason Day in Friday's fourballs in windy conditions at Royal Melbourne.


Phil Mickelson and Jim Furyk also beat Adam Scott and Kyung-tae Kim 2&1 as the two sides shared the fourballs 3-3.


"It was a tough day," said Woods. "Just trying to hit the greens was a heck of an accomplishment."


Former world number one Woods is the only American yet to make a contribution towards his team's bid for a fourth successive win - and this is the first time he has lost his first two games in matchplay format since the 2004 Ryder Cup in Detroit.

Greg Norman's International team, 4-2 down after the first-day foursomes, had hoped to use the tough conditions to their advantage. Instead, both sides struggled on a day that American Mickelson called "crazy".


The International pairing of Geoff Ogilvy and KJ Choi beat Bill Haas and Nick Watney on the 18th hole.


Americans Matt Kuchar and Steve Stricker eased to a 4&3 victory over Robert Allenby and YE Yang, while Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson beat Ernie Els and Ryo Ishikawa 3&1.


It was the second consecutive win for both US duos this week.


South Africans Retief Goosen and Charl Schwartzel ensured the day ended 3-3 when they finished off David Toms and Hunter Mahan 2&1 in the final match.


Woods will face Scott - and his former caddie Steve Williams - again on day three when he pairs up with Johnson to face Scott and Choi.


On the third day of the competition there are five foursomes in the morning before five fourballs in the afternoon.

I will be fit for the US Open - Woods

Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods hopes will be "ready to go" for the US Open in mid-June despite injuries to his knee, Achilles, calf and back problems.


Woods has been using crutches and wearing a protective boot on his left leg to ensure it is appropriate.


But the age of 35 is still doubtful for the Memorial tournament which starts on May 30 in Dublin, Ohio.


Woods said: "I think that, in the next week, more or less, I can start practicing pain-free." "It's where I am."


For relief of medical Woods have not mentioned the possibility of more leg surgery.


"I have had four surgeries," Woods said. "Obviously, is not it was when I was young".


Woods hopes to begin physical training again at the end of the week, but did not start hitting balls again until that he knows how to answer his leg.


If, as expected, it is capable of playing in the Memorial, Woods would run for the US Open, held from 16 to 19 June, with little competition under his belt, although it has been in that situation before.


In 2008, he had arthroscopic surgery after the masters and he did not play again until the US Open but still won the tournament.


Doctors discovered a double fracture of his left tibia in the weeks before the big but Woods ignored his advice Woods played and won at Torrey Pines in a tiebreaker lasted 19 holes.


He says that his left leg is not nearly as bad as it was then, but Woods was forced to withdraw after only nine holes at the players championship this month.


It has also fallen in the upper part of the world 10 for the first time in 14 years and currently holds number 12.


Woods said: "not have played." It is one of the reasons that I have fallen as soon as I have. When playing, I've not played well. "Winning takes care of all that."


Before talking to the press on Tuesday, Woods posted on Twitter that donate 1 million dollars to his foundation if not reporters asked him about his leg.


Asked about the injured limb but Woods tweeted later that donate money anyway.
