Sergio Garcia highlights physical challenge facing Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods makes his first official start on the PGA Tour for a year in the Farmers Insurance Open, but for once all eyes may not be on the 14-time major winner.

Woods has won eight times at Torrey Pines, including his last major in the 2008 US Open, but missed the cut in this event 12 months ago, withdrew after an opening 77 in the following week’s Dubai Desert Classic and sat out the rest of the year until returning with a tie for ninth in December’s 18-man Hero World Challenge.

“Before the Hero I was basically given the okay probably about three or four weeks prior to the tournament, and I thought I did pretty good in that prep time,” Woods told ESPN.com.
