Golf: Woods makes solid start to season

“I feel much more confident about my game, ” Tiger.

PEBBLE BEACH: Tiger Woods got his 2012 PGA Tour season off to a solid start, firing a four-under 68 at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am event to sit five strokes behind a trio of leaders. Woods took advantage of some perfect weather in first-round action at the Spyglass Hill golf course. “I drilled it great today,” said Woods. “I feel much more confident about my game.” The 14-time major winner was five strokes back of a threesome at the top of the leader-board - New Zealand’s Danny Lee, Charlie Wi of South Korea and American Dustin Johnson - who all reached nine-under.
