Woods refused to say why he spent 45 days in rehabilitation, but says he intends to continue with his treatment. He also said he received five stitches in his mouth after the infamous November night car crash outside his home, but stressed that he’s not addicted to prescription drugs.

While his wife, Elin, won’t be joining him at Augusta, Woods still believes he can win his fifth green jacket after a five-month layoff.
