SAN DIEGO -- Some of his finest accomplishments in the game occurred here, as did some of his first memories of PGA Tour golf. It is where Tiger Woods first came to witness a tournament, then with celebrity host Andy Williams' name in the title, the picturesque views of the Pacific Ocean a backdrop.
Woods, of course, has won at Torrey Pines nine times -- seven at the tour event he returns to this week, the Farmers Insurance Open, as well as his last major championship 10 years ago, the U.S. Open.
