TIGER Woods has shrugged off claims by Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano that he was beatable at this week's WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship. Woods, whose world ranking has slipped from No. 1 to 20th, will face the 48th-ranked Spaniard on Wednesday.
"I feel exactly the same way as he does," three-time Match Play champion Woods told reporters on Tuesday before setting off to practise. "I feel he's beatable, too."
Asked whether he was especially motivated by what other players said about him, he replied: "It used to quite a bit when I was younger but as I've matured I've gone beyond that.
"It's their prerogative, it's their opinion. What matters is how I go out and play and how I'm progressing in my game. At the end of the day when I'm retired, I think I will have mastered a pretty good record."
