Tiger Woods says swing 'won't change' following 2nd back surgery

Tiger Woods doesn't expect his swing to change following his latest back surgery.

"Difference after this surgery is that my swing won't change," Woods told the PGA Tour on Tuesday at the Bridgestone Golf America's Golf Cup in Mexico City. Woods was scheduled to play in the event but the back injury forced him to withdraw.

Woods, 39, announced on Sept. 19 that he had undergone a second microdiscectomy and that he would be out of competition until early 2016. Woods needed three months after his first microdiscectomy surgery before he could return to the PGA Tour.
