Tiger Woods says he has got "a lot stronger" since his Masters return last month at Augusta National.
The 15-time Major champion makes his second start of the year at this week's PGA Championship at Southern Hills in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he won his fourth Wanamaker Trophy 15 years ago.
“It’s only going to keep getting stronger,” he said of his rehabilitated right leg, which he feared was going to be amputated following his horrific single car crash in LA last February. "The more I use it, the more strength it gains. Am I ever going to have full mobility? No. Never again. But I’ll be able to get stronger. It’s going to ache, but that’s the way it’s going to be.
“I’m excited about [the week ahead]. I’m not going to play that much going forward so anytime I do play, it’s going to be fun to play and to compete. There only so many money games you can play at home.”
“We were doing some practising and some playing, so it was a combination,” LaCava said of their time in Florida last week. “We were not just playing and not just practising. We were kind of mixing it up, kind of simulating what you might do at a tournament, doing some chipping and putting before and after, so you’re on your feet a little bit longer.
“Other than the fact that he won here in 2007, I think it’s the stamina and endurance thing that excites him the most.”
