ATLANTA Tommy Fleetwood hit a handful of tee shots past Tiger Woods on Thursday at the Tour Championship. But Woods found more fairways [10 to eight] and shot four strokes lower [65 to 69].Ever since making adjustments to his driver which included adding loft and changing the shaft at The Northern Trust, Woods long game has become one of his greatest assets.Woods hit 10 of 14 fairways in the first round at East Lake Golf Club, which led to hitting 14 of 18 greens in regulation. Twenty-eight putts equaled a 5-under round and a share of the lead.Its not as though Woods has completely traded distance for accuracy. He hit his drive on the par-5 18th 320 yards and that helped produce an eagle.

Its more like he now has the ability to control his driver. Those wayward tee shots we had become accustomed to seeing arent so offline. That means sometimes hell send one 296 yards like he did on the first hole and sometimes hell gear up and knock one 328 yards like he did at the fifth.[I]f I hit it normal, I hit it just as far. And so that's to me like 300 yards in the air, he said. But the neat thing about this one is that if I miss it and spin it a little bit, those spinners stay in play instead of chasing off on me, and I can turn this ball.Like the tee shot I hit down 18, I didn't have that shot earlier with not enough loft. [M]y spin rate would be so low that it wouldn't stay in the air.And so, yeah, if I hit controlled shots, they're in play and they're shorter. But if I go ahead and step up and launch one, I'm just as far. The neat thing is I don't have to swing it as hard to hit the ball as far. And so it puts a little less toll on my body. I don't have to have my speed up there at 120, 121, 122 miles an hour to carry it 305, 310 like I did before.Often times you hear players talk about aspects of their game and it sounds like they are trying to convince themselves that things are OK. Tiger's actions are backing up his words.

I guess one area where I can make radical change happen if I stop making excuses is my further education. It's always on to-do list but those courses never get accomplished and I never get that certificate which will facilitate my promotion. Ok, now, no more excuses, it's time to get back to studies. Thanks, Marie!
