Tiger Woods has learned from past experiences to take a cautious approach when it comes to his health. FMTNews

NEW JERSEY: Tiger Woods on Wednesday said stiffness in his surgically repaired back had limited his ability to practice ahead of the Northern Trust Open, which kicks off the PGA Tour playoffs on Thursday in Jersey City.

“Some days I’m stiffer than others. Yesterday I was out there hitting it great, driving it out there with Brooksy and DJ, and today I’m stiff. Hopefully I’m not that way tomorrow,” he told reporters. “I learned a lot last year by playing too much after coming back from my procedure and not really knowing what to expect,” he said.“And that’s the challenge now because I cut my schedule back. But the problem was the season changed.

Woods said he could no longer practice as much as he would like to and was unable to even “sniff” the level of preparation he used to put in before a tournament.
