Even Tiger Woods is curious how he will play

Tiger Woods has been on the golf course every day … practicing … playing … hitting his full array of shots without fear of pain shooting down his left leg or bones sliding out of place.
But when it comes to shots that he has to count …
“It’s one thing to do it in a practice environment at home against my buddies for a little cash,” Woods said Friday in his first interview about his comeback. “It’s a totally different deal to do it at a PGA Tour event against the best players in the world. I’m excited to get out there and experience that.
“I’m as curious as you.
“One of the great things coming back is my bones aren’t moving anymore. It’s a very comforting feeling hitting a golf ball without your bones sliding all over the place. That’s been very exciting to play that way, and I’m looking forward to the season.”
Woods said his knee has been ready for several weeks. He was awaiting the birth of his son, Charlie Axel.
“It was making sure the family was all good with the birth of Charlie and making sure Elin was OK, Charlie was OK, everything was safe and sound on the home front,” he said. “Then the focus was on playing again.”
