Tiger Woods could not escape the media scrutiny of his form at the Farmers Insurance Open, especially after a shooting 75 in Sunday's final round.The world No.3 knew every aspect of his game would be called into question at Torrey Pines - a course Woods knows well after winning there on five successive occasions.
However, he failed to rediscover his old form as he finished tied for 44th place, his worst start to any season during his professional career.
It was a surprising collapse too, for his opening rounds of 69 and 69 were signs that his game was edging back on track after a series of personal problems.
But the weekend scores of 74 and 75 confirmed Woods has plenty of work to do on the driving range and putting green before he is likely to challenge Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer, who sit ahead of him in the world rankings.
Woods, at least, was honest enough to reflect on his final round and speak about his commitment to rebuilding his swing with coach Sean Foley.
He said "I hit a lot of good shots early in the week, and then it progressively got worse."
