NEW YORK (REUTERS) - Tiger Woods said on Tuesday (Feb 25) that he will prepare for this year's Masters in much the same way as in 2019 when he ended an 11-year wait for a major title with a remarkable triumph at Augusta National.

Woods completed an extraordinary return from spinal fusion surgery he underwent in 2017, producing one of the most emotional finishes in tournament history as he came from behind to win by one shot last April.

"The plan is to prepare the same way," Woods said, on a Masters champion conference call.
