"He's a tremendous talent, but it's hard to say right now because it's only two weeks since I've hung up the clubs," Williams said.The 11-year professional and personal relationship between Williams and Woods ended in 2011 with some acrimony. Williams said they had met occasionally on tour since, though Woods' recent injuries meant they had not seen each other often. – AP
