TPC Sawgrass Must Be Booked This Week: Tiger Back Home Practicing
/So Tiger's back home practicing, according to two writers, first Steve Elling and now Doug Ferguson.
You may recall we were told that Tiger's February 19th statement reading had to happen the week of the Accenture match play event because of a very tightly controlled rehab schedule according to his team and Commissioner Tim Finchem, even though most saw it as a shot back at Accenture for dropping Tiger. Finchem:
“As we understand it, Tiger’s therapy called for a week’s break at this time during which he has spent a few days with his children and then will make his statement before returning,” Finchem said in a letter Thursday. “Accordingly, there was very little flexibility in the date for the announcement.”
So with that in mind, Steve Elling reported yesterday:
What that means for his return date is unclear, but a resident who lives near Woods at Isleworth Country Club reported to CBSSports.com that he spotted Woods – his personal electric cart parked nearby and his trademark stuffed Tiger headcover peeking out of his bag – working on his game on the club's range.
Moreover, Woods is said to be staying at the home he formerly shared with his wife, Elin, and not at the townhouse he owns located around the corner from the Isleworth clubhouse.
Woods spent 45 days in a rehab clinic and has spent little time on his golf game since the post-Thanksgiving Day accident outside his home that started his highly publicized free-fall.

So this begs the question, why couldn't Tiger have read his statement today? Or yesterday? Or Wednesday? Or next week?
