Tiger Woods Masters: World's No.1 Says He's At Mid-Point Of Career Heading Into Major

Tiger Woods, currently the owner of 14 career major championships, is entering his 19th Masters tournament this week and told ESPN Tuesday that he is only at the midpoint of his already legendary career. "That's one of the neat things about our career -- it's so long," said Woods, 37, who played in his first Masters at age 19 and has never missed the cut as a pro.

"We have the opportunity to play basically 30 years solidly at a high level. We have very expansive careers and I feel like I'm basically right in the middle of mine. I have a lot of good years ahead of me, and I'm excited about this week."

Woods regained the No. 1 world ranking two weeks ago after winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational, his third victory of the year, ending his nearly two and a half year drought since losing the ranking in October 2010. Now, Woods will look to end his seven-year drought without a major tournament victory at Augusta National Golf Club this weekend. 

The heavily-favored Woods is scheduled to tee off at 10:45 p.m. ET, playing with Luke Donald and Scott Piercy. Fans can view all of the action during the tournament here and can watch the final rounds on CBS live.
