Tiger Woods back to golf course

Tiger Woods back to golf courseLondon, Mar 7 : Tiger Woods is preparing for a comeback to golf after the sex-scandal hit him last year.

The golfer recently enjoyed a nine-hour practice session at the Isleworth club near his Florida home.

A fortnight from now Woods will participate in the Tavistock Cup, a competition between local state pros, say sources.

"Tiger seemed to be in the zone totally. It''s amazing how just three months ago he was in hiding and unable to get his head round even stepping back on a golf course,” the News of the World quoted a source as saying.

The insider added: "His therapists have advised him to get back into his normal routine. In the next few weeks he also has to re-apply himself to living a clean life away from the addiction course."

Meanwhile, Woods and his wife Elin spent time at their old family home in Isleworth this week.

Woods made a public apology over his extra-marital affairs last month. (ANI)
