Not having Woods around helps only slightly. "He's giving us a little bit of a break at the moment," said Scott, two weeks removed from a playoff victory in the EDS Byron Nelson Championship. "Still, there's so many good players here this week that I think your percentages are only just a little bit better." Woods will be out at least until the Memorial, but he was rarely a factor at The Players. Since winning in 2001, he has failed to crack the top 10. There hasn't been much buzz during the practice rounds, but there rarely is at a tournament that has yet to attract a national following like the four majors, something PGA Tour commissioner Tim Ftnchem hopes will happen over time.
