Tiger sees little risk

BETHESDA: Tiger Woods says he is feeling as well as he has in two years and sees little re-injury risk this week despite a comeback that is well ahead of schedule. The 14-time major winner, sidelined for three months following back surgery to ease a pinched nerve, returns to competition on Thursday at the PGA National. “I'm actually probably ahead of schedule, where everyone thought I would be at,” he said. “We all thought British Open would be my first event back, but I healed fast.”
