But since he can use a cart and the event has only 36 holes, Tiger can think of competing in this event.

Hence, in short, Tiger looks close to ready for PNC Championship. But this doesn’t make his PGA Tour return imminent. He still has a lot of time remaining to gain enough strength in his leg to walk 18 holes thru four days. But as far as his swing is concerned, it still looked impeccable.
