Tiger Woods insists he can win Masters in sensational return after injury

• I don't show up to an event unless I think I can win it'
• Former world No 1 was in a horrific car crash last year

A brush with death has not been sufficient to diminish the confidence of Tiger Woods. Speaking before the latest of his unlikely comebacks, at the 86th Masters, Woods has insisted he can win what would be a sixth Green Jacket.

Fourteen months since being confined to a hospital bed after incurring serious injuries from a car crash in California and 17 since his last round of competitive golf, Woods has defied widespread expectation to take his place in the Masters draw. His latest severe damage was in his lower right leg and foot, which are now held together by metal.
