Anyone who was hoping that Tiger Woods would have lost a little bit of an edge while away from the golf course with a knee injury is apparently going to find themselves sorely disappointed. This is because the world number one golfer, Tiger Woods swears that he is going to be a better golfer than ever upon his return.
"I have been trying to make changes for years," He told reporters regarding his golf swing, "But I didn't have much in the knee." After holding a news conference in the lavish Hotel Bel-Air in Beverly Hills, he spoke about his comeback as well as his plans to unveil details about a golf course design for a course by the name of Punta Brava that would be situated along the shore line in Ensenada in Mexico. He has been working on this design, which is his third attempt at golf architecture, ever since he tore a ligament in his left knee and sustained stress fractures which were exacerbated during his playoff victory at June's San Diego United States Open tournament, which was what forced him out for the remainder of the season. He has planned to return sometime in early 2009 according to reports and interviews, though he is not expected to make a full 100 percent recovery until sometime around 2010.
Tiger Woods assures reporters that he does not plan on changing his attacking approach. His primary focus is not to do any more damage, but simply to get back into the game as soon as he can. He showed a lot of enthusiasm during recent interviews about the Ryder Cup last month, as well as his plans for his newest golf course, Punta Brava. Punta Brava is going to be an exciting project for him, involving the creation of a 6,853 yard, par 70 golf course layouts where you can see beaches and ocean from every single hole along the entire course, which is not something that you tend to see in many golf courses anywhere, let alone in beautiful Ensenada, Mexico. Punta Brava is slated to open either in late 2010 or in early 2011, and this may depend heavily on Woods' golf schedule at the time and whether or not he is still dealing with the ramifications of his injuries and the lengthened healing process that came with the exacerbation of his injuries in recent tournament play.
Tiger Woods may be out for a while longer, but he does not appear to plan on letting that get him down in any way. He is enjoying placing his focus on his newest architectural golf course in Ensenada, Mexico, and he is already gearing up to return to the green in as early as January of 2009, which does not give his competitors much time to improve their games if they expect to gain an edge over him during his absence.
