Tiger Woods will take a week off from nappy changing to make his first appearance of the 2008 PGA Tour season at the Buick Invitational on Thursday. The tournament also marks Kelly Tilghman's return to the commentary box after the infamous "lynch" comments. Coincidence? Well, yes actually. It’s fair to assume the players will not follow Tilghman's words to the letter, so look for Woodsy to maintain his form of last season and continue to dominate the game. Tiger has won four out of the last five Buick Invitationals at Torrey Pines and it’s one of the world number one’s favourite tracks. "I've loved playing Torrey Pines since my days in the junior world and look forward to the tournament. Even though they have redesigned the South Course, it's still a wonderful layout and I always enjoy San Diego," said Woods. Uh oh, sounds ominous. Oh yeah, the US Open takes place there to, so a 14th or possibly 15th Major (The Masters permitting) is on the cards. Woods' dominance over his rivals has become such that if he wins in San Diego, he’ll take his strike-rate on the PGA Tour to one victory in every two events since the start of 2006. Which is frankly ridiculous. "The rest of the competition is miles behind over there." The Majors are what really turns Woods on though and you can get 20-1 for him to win all four this year and 50-1 for him to overhaul Jack Nicklaus by 2009. I sense wallets coming out of pockets people.
