Woods Says He'll Return For The Masters



(Undated) -- Golf star Tiger Woods has announced he will return to play in The Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, Georgia. FoxSports.com Senior Golf Editor Robert Lusetich says The Masters suits Tiger's return well.

Woods has been on a self-imposed hiatus from pro golf since December, after his extramarital affairs came to light. The world's number-one golfer has said that he has since been going to therapy. In a statement released today, Woods noted The Masters is where he won his first major, and he views the tournament with great respect. He said, quote, "I think Augusta is where I need to be, even though it's been a while since I last played."
