Tiger Woods is confident he still has what it takes to claim a record 83rd PGA Tour victory.

The American, 47, is playing on a limited schedule due to the injuries he suffered in a 2021 car crash.

Woods carded a final-round 61 alongside his son Charlie, 14, at the PNC Championship in Orlando yesterday.

He said: "If I'm able to practise and do the things I know I can do, and prepare, I know I can still do it.

"I can still hit the golf ball. It's just a matter of prepping, getting enough reps, being right physically and the endurance capability of it. 

"I haven't had the leg good enough where I've been able to compete and play a lot of rounds. 

"I can still hit the golf ball. I can still chip. I can still putt. 

"Granted it's also putting it all together for 72 holes. That's the challenging part of it."

Woods' last PGA Tour win was at the Zozo Championship in 2019 and took him level with Sam Snead's record of 82 victories. 

He added: "A lot of things are aching a lot more than my ankle, which is the way it goes.

"We've been working out hard, been able to recover. We've been training every day, which is great. 

"It's been nice to knock off a lot of the rust and some of the doubt that I've had because, quite frankly, I haven't hit a shot that counted in a long time."
