Woods aiming for US Open

-

TIGER WOODS should be back in time for the US Open in June, says close friend Notah Begay.

The 14-time major champion, who has been beset by back problems, missed out on the Masters on the 20th anniversar­y of his 12-stroke pro debut win. However, Begay claims Woods has the season’s second major in his sights. ‘The US Open is a definite possibilit­y,’ said Begay, who went to college with Woods and works for the Golf Channel.

‘We should probably look to him making one or two starts after the Players Championsh­ip in May to see where his game is at.’
