Tiger Woods is back for another crack at the Australian Open and officials are making sure he earns his $3m appearance fee by keeping him on a tight schedule. Last night he hammed it up with Shane Warne at Crown Casino and he was up at the crack of dawn today for a round of golf at the Victoria Golf Club. He then spoke to the press for about half an hour and didn't shy away from personal questions about his private life.
It was in Melbourne this time last year when he won the Masters for the first time that the news broke about his extra-marital affairs that cost him his marriage and a run of bad luck on the golf course. "I wanted to come back" he said "I love to win here".
Woods is partnered in tomorrow's first round with two-time winner Robert Allenby and West Australian Brett Rumford. Geoff Ogilvy and Stuart Appleby will also be among the early starters.
