Woods' warning to rivals
by Richard Field, 08 October 2008
Tiger Woods says his knee surgery can be the gateway to even bigger and better things.
The world number one has been conspicuous by his absence following the surgery he underwent after his US Open win - at Torrey Pines - in June.
Many golfers have failed to regain their top form after similar surgery but Woods sees only the positives.
“I’ve been trying to make changes [in my swing] for years, but I didn’t have much in [the knee],” Woods said on Reuters.
“It will be nice to be able to hit against a solid left side for the first time in years.”

Woods spoke many times with American Ryder Cup captain Paul Azinger during the event at Valhalla, and the 14-time Major winner knows where the United States team got it right.
“We finally putted well," added Woods. “We’ve putted well at The Presidents Cup, but never the Ryder Cup.
“We made all the putts, hence we won.”
