MELBOURNE - A biennial tournament that has struggled for relevance under a heavy weight of American supremacy will roar back into life when Tiger Woods returns to the Presidents Cup as a playing captain at Royal Melbourne this week.

Woods, though, used one of his four captain’s picks on himself and will be front and center at the famed sandbelt course, calling the shots in the locker room and out on the fairways as the visitors bid for an eighth straight title. With 10 Americans in the world’s top 20 compared to just Adam Scott for the Internationals, the U.S. might have little need of a seasoned Presidents Cup campaigner to get the job done.He played the course in 1998 when the U.S. suffered their lone Presidents Cup defeat and returned 13 years later to roll in the winning putt at the 2011 tournament.“ when you start out on Thursday, it’s 0-0. We have to go out and win this Cup.
