Woods back in the swing

Tiger Woods believes he has rooted out the problems with his swing that plagued him at the Masters last month.

The former world No 1 failed to break par in any of his four rounds at Augusta but goes to this week's Wells Fargo Championship with renewed confidence after a fortnight working with coach Sean Foley.

"At the Masters I was kind of struggling with my ball-striking a little bit," said Woods.

"Sean and I fixed it. It had to do with my posture. My set-up wasn't quite right as well as my takeaway so we worked on that. I'm getting dialled in."

Asked if he believed he had a chance of picking up his 73rd PGA Tour title at Quail Hollow this week, he said: "I feel like I do, yes.

"I'm going to a golf course I like in Charlotte. I've won there before. I feel like if I can do the things I've been working on then I have a good chance."
