It was the former world number one's first
event since withdrawing during the Masters in April due to
injury before he underwent ankle surgery.
The 47-year-old has kept a limited competition schedule after a
2021 car crash left him with a serious leg injury and he said
the plan for next year had been one tournament a month.
"Once a month seems reasonable," he added. "It gives me a couple
of weeks to recover and a week to tune up. Maybe I can get into
the rhythm," he told Golf channel.
He said he was looking forward to playing in the PNC
Championship, formerly the Father/Son Challenge, from Dec. 14 in
Orlando along with his son Charlie.
Woods, who felt "mentally rusty" after first day's play on
Thursday, said he was "ecstatic" how the tournament turned out.
"Every day I got faster into the round. The first day it took me
a while to get a handle on it. Second day was faster and today
was right away," he said in a press conference.
"I feel like my game's not that far off but I need to get in
better shape.
"I don't have the bone pain that I did, but I still have to go
through with the same protocols. It takes a long time, that's
the unfortunate thing about aging," he said.
