Tiger is a popular topic

The Tavistock Cup ended on Monday without Tiger Woods for the first time since the inaugural tournament of the organization in 2004. But the dominant theme among the players at Golf & Country Club -besides 25 mph winds - was the world No. 1 player.

Woods, however, spent most of last week on practice and play at Isleworth with John Cook and Arjun Atwal."He's hitting it longer than before," Atwal said. "But he feels he's not totally ready."

The question of how Woods will fare at the Masters,where he'll do in his return to golf early next month, Cook said " From what I've seen in the last three days ... striking the ball first.

"I don't see anybody hit the ball like he does. If he takes that game up there, that's vintage. I don't see anybody beating him."

However, the golf (TaylorMade Burner Superfast Driver) is the easiest thing for Woods. Woods admitted in an ESPN interview - conducted an interview with Golf Channel too, that what reactions will be waiting for him when he comes back golf.

"There are going to be a lot of distractions," Henrik Stenson said. "But if anybody can handle it, he can."

At present, however, this is one step after another. As Caddy said,it can not be changed within 45 days. It takes time, and this is only the beginning for woods.

"Tiger made a mistake and bring many problem to his family,his friends,his colleagues and his fans. Now,he is really under great responsibility" O'Meara said he had seen only snippets of Woods's interview, but he has been exchanging text messages with Woods, and even hopes that Woods will play in the Tavistock Cup.

He said he was not ready, O'Meara said, adding that Woods did not think it would be fair to the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard if he did not played Bay Hill but Isleworth.

O'Meara also said he had been an older brother to Woods for 10 years on the PGA Tour, had not heard from him so much in the last three years.

Those two who are Tiger's Isleworth neighbors haven't spoken in person or by telephone since November 27 incident outside the house Woods, where security is still limited on Monday. On Monday night, in fact, GOLF CHANNE said that Wood spent the day-long practicing at Augusta National.

Moving to us exactly what some players are going to make as sooner or later.

Two other players at nearby Bay Hill, meanwhile, shared similar sentiments. "I want all this to just get over with," added Steve Stricker.On April 8, it will -- sort of. That's when the first round of the Masters begins.
