Woods upping workload as fitness fears recede

China Daily  

Tiger Woods watches his tee shot on the 17th hole during the first round of The Northern Trust golf tournament at TPC of Boston in Norton, Massachusetts, USA, Aug 20, 2020. "The plan is to play four out of five," Woods said on Wednesday after playing the back nine at TPC Boston. It's an ambitious plan for a 44-year-old who tries to avoid playing consecutive weeks, much less the three in a row that might be required for him to reach the Tour Championship for the first time since he won at East Lake in 2018. The road begins with this week's Northern Trust, the first of three playoff events that culminate in Atlanta with the Tour Championship and the $15 million prize to the FedEx Cup champion. Justin Thomas is the No 1 seed－the eighth player in eight years to have the top seed starting the postseason－and played the nine-hole practice round with Woods, Ryan Palmer and Harold Varner III.
