Tiger Woods is swinging a driver without pain, and his agent says doctors have cleared him to practice without limitations.
Still to be determined is when Woods can play in a tournament.
“We haven’t even addressed when he comes back to play again. We have not addressed one thing,” said Mark Steinberg, his agent at Excel Sports Management. “He wants to play this so conservatively.”
Steinberg said Woods received a “good report” last week from doctors who performed fusion surgery on his lower back in April. Woods posted a video on Twitter on Oct. 7 of him hitting a smooth iron shot . Then on Sunday, Woods posted another video — in a red shirt , no less — hitting a driver.
“Making progress,” he tweeted.
The Giants have ended their suspension of veteran cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie for insubordination.
Team officials announced Tuesday that Rodgers-Cromartie was reinstated to the active roster after missing the team’s game against Denver on Sunday night.
The team says RodgersCromartie met with coach Ben McAdoo on Tuesday morning, then was taken off of the reserve/suspended by club list.
The 31-year-old veteran was suspended for leaving the team facility before practice last week. He also left the bench then returned in the second half of the Giants’ loss to the Chargers, a move that prompted McAdoo to make RodgersCromartie inactive for the Broncos game.
Suspended Elliott getting emergency hearing in NY
A person with direct knowledge of the situation says attorneys for Dallas Cowboys star Ezekiel Elliott are set for an emergency hearing in federal court in New York as they try again to stop the running back’s six-game suspension over domestic violence allegations.
Elliott’s legal team filed a request for a temporary restraining order Monday and will get a hearing Tuesday in the Southern District of New York, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the filing hadn’t been made public.
Last year’s NFL rushing leader is suspended for Sunday’s game at San Francisco after a federal appeals court overturned an injunction that had allowed him to play this season.
