Tokyo or bust as Tiger eyes Olympic dream

Tiger Woods is setting his sights on next year's Tokyo Olympics, driven by the realization he might not get many more chances to add a gold medal to his bulging trophy cabinet.

The 43-year-old former world No 1 is hunting a 16th major at this week's US Open at Pebble Beach, two months after crowning his comeback from injury with a dazzling victory at the Masters.

But Woods acknowledged on Tuesday he is excited by the possibility of challenging for Olympic honors in Tokyo, where golf will be back as a medal sport after a returning to the Games in 2016.
