Tiger Woods says he is at the Masters to win despite his long break

Tiger Woods says it will be business as usual in Augusta this week, where he expects to win the Masters. In his first open press conference since a devastating personal scandal, Woods marked his comeback to competition by claiming that "nothing's changed" on the course. He said that he had high expectations, despite his long lay-off. "Nothing's changed," he said. "I will try and go out there and win this thing. The fact I haven't really played at all, that's a little bit concerning." Woods also said he had never used human growth hormone while recovering from injury. The American admitted that he had been treated by the controversial physician Dr Anthony Galea, who is under federal investigation in a drugs case, but said he only received treatment known as "blood spinning". Asked if the FBI had contacted him in relation to Galea's case, Woods said: "They contacted my agent and will get full co-operation whenever they need me, but right now they haven't asked for my time."
