‘I’ve been better with each week I’ve competed. A little more crisp. I’m starting to put the pieces together.’

Woods missed his third Masters in four years last year after spinal fusion surgery, but has contended in his past two starts, sharing fifth at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and second at the Valspar Championship.

‘It’s fantastic what we’re seeing of Tiger. He looks in control of his game,’ said Britain’s Justin Rose, last year’s Masters runner-up. 

Woods, who at a low point doubted he would ever play competitive golf again, has seen interest in his comeback tale at age 42 send resale prices for Masters badges soaring several thousand dollars above face value.

‘I got a second chance on life,’ Woods said. ‘I am a walking miracle.’

Woods hasn’t won a major since the 2008 US Open, hasn’t won a tournament since the 2013 WGC Bridgestone Invitational, hasn’t played in a major since missing the cut at the 2015 PGA Championship and last won the Masters in 2005.

‘I’m just really looking forward to playing,’ Woods said. ‘It’s the best-run tournament in the world. The golf course, the patrons, the entire atmosphere – it’s a golfers heaven.’
