There's life in me yet: Tiger Woods
St Andrews
Tiger Woods says that age and injuries have failed to diminish his will to win and that more major titles are still possible as he approaches his 40th birthday.
Speaking Tuesday ahead of his fifth British Open at St Andrews, the former world number one spoke of recent hard times and the increasingly distant good times in his golf career.
Questioned at his pre-tournament press conference if he had ever harboured thoughts of retirement during his bleak spell this year, Woods shot back: "Well, retirement? I don't have any AARP (retirement) card yet, so I'm a ways from that.
"I feel like my body is finally healed up from the (back) surgery from last year.
"You know, they say it takes you about four-to-six months to get back, but I've heard a lot of guys on tour who have had the surgery and other athletes say it takes over a year to get back.
"I think they were there probably closer to being right, it being a full year to get back."
