ADARE, Ireland – Against a backdrop of grey skies and an adoring Irish gallery that swelled beyond 35,000 by the time he’d completed his second trip around stately Adare Manor, Tiger Woods returned to center stage.

From Golfweek, by Adam Schupak:
For years, Tiger Woods has answered questions regarding the state of his health as if it were a state secret. When an interviewer at the JP McManus Pro-Am asked him how his body is doing, Woods smiled and said, “Still attached.”
Woods dusted off the rust on his game by shooting 2-over 74 at Adare Manor in Limerick, Ireland. That came a day after posting 5-over 77, which included one vintage moment for the highlight reel, a chip-in for eagle at 13.
Woods complained of jet lag but said he’s getting the right mix of rest and practice ahead of the season’s final major. Read more

"I am looking forward to St. Andrews," [Tiger Woods] said in April after finishing 47th in Augusta. "That is something that is near and dear to my heart and I've won two Opens there, it's the home of golf. It's my favorite golf course in the world, so I will be there for that one."
Woods is a three-time champion of the Open, winning at the Old Course in 2000 and 2005, and Royal Liverpool in 2006. Read more
