Woods is now looking forward to the rest of the season and said: "I've turned some of the weaknesses that I had last year into strengths. I'm really excited about the rest of this year.. "The very beginning of the year I was excited because of how the end of last year turned. My short game came around, I thought my swing was getting better, my short irons got better, lo and behold, I won a few tournaments this year." The Masters is now just over two weeks away and when asked if he would have to add to his haul of 14 Majors to appease the remaining doubters, Woods added: "It's up to them. It's their opinion. I'm very pleased with the way I'm playing."
