Tiger Woods has never known a fallow period like it in major championships. Paradoxically he has never appeared more at ease with his lot. He took questions on fatherhood, discussing the wisdom of allowing son Charlie to follow in his footsteps two days after their first public embrace in the immediate aftermath of the victory at Firestone on Sunday. He entertained with tales of his own youth, defying his father's wishes that he pursue baseball, dashing straight from pitching practice to the golf course. And he talked about the weights regime of a 37-year-old, the vital importance of pumping iron to the crunching of golf balls.
