Woods says recovery will be 'tedious and long'

Ailing Tiger aims to reclaim his former glory

Tiger Woods, who has not yet started rehabilitation for a second back surgery he had a month ago, said on Tuesday he faces another "tedious and long" process that suggests it might be awhile before he competes again.

Woods last played at the Wyndham Champion on Aug 23, where he tied for 10th for his best finish at a PGA Tour event in nearly two years.
