Tiger Woods: 'I Hope to Be Ready for the Masters'

[Dogfish Head]

Tiger reclaimed world No. 1 with his victory at the 2013 Arnold Palmer Invitational.​

TIGER WOODS ANNOUNCED THAT HE WILL SKIP the Arnold Palmer Invitational, a tournament he has won eight times, including in 2013. "I will continue to work hard preparing for Augusta," Tiger said.

His full statement from TigerWoods.com:

I spoke to Arnold today and told him that I will not play in his tournament this year. I'm sorry I won't be in Orlando next week, but I know it will be a really successful event.
I've put in a lot of time and work on my game and I'm making strides, but like I've said, I won't return to the PGA TOUR until my game is tournament ready and I can compete at the highest level.
I hope to be ready for the Masters, and I will continue to work hard preparing for Augusta.
I want to thank everyone again for their support.​

Is the Masters the tour that comes after the Seniors? Yeah, he might be ready by then.

Just read where Eldrick has announced that he will be playing in this year's Masters.

$10 even money that he doesn't make the cut.

He shot a 74 in a practice round with 5 birdies.

Sounds like one of my practice rounds but wiithout the birdies.

If he doesn't withdraw, I think he will make the cut. With that stipulation, I'll take your bet.

This is high risk for TW. If he stinks it up again, his confidence will be shot and he'll have to disappear for a long while. I really hope his presence does not detract from what is usually one of my favorite majors.

I'm in and accept your bet.

Withdrawal counts as missing the cut.
