REUTERS: Tiger Woods returns to the scene of his greatest performance for this week's U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, no longer necessarily the man to beat but a definite threat to win his 16th major title.
Woods is arguably the greatest iron player ever, an asset that will be so important at Pebble Beach, where the tiny, sharply-sloping greens require precise approach shots. "I hit a couple of loose iron shots, and my fairway bunker game wasn't very good. Those are loose things that you can't afford to have happen in an Open. If I can clean those up, I should be all right."After he won the Masters in April, ending a decade-long major victory drought, talk immediately turned to whether the 43-year-old could add to his major tally this year.
But there is about as much chance of his not being prepared for Pebble Beach as there is of it raining during the tournament - namely next to zero.
