Bubba Watson expects Tiger Woods to be at The Masters

Defending champion Bubba Watson is confident that Tiger Woods will end his break from golf before The Masters begins at Augusta next month.

Bubba Watson has claimed that he would be surprised if Tiger Woods decided against playing at The Masters next month.

Woods announced in February that he would take a break from the sport in an attempt to improve a number of areas in his game, and the world number one has not yet revealed whether he will return at Augusta.

However, defending champion Watson is confident that Woods will not be able to resist the temptation to play in the first Major of 2015.

Speaking on CBS show This Morning, the two-time Masters winner said: "If I had to bet, if someone made me take a bet, I would say yes.

"Because it's the greatest championship we have all year. If he's not injured, how would he miss it?

"I think he's taking some time off to miss the game and get excited about it. That's what I'm doing. I take two weeks off before the game."

Woods is a four-time Masters champion, but he has not triumphed at Augusta since 2005.
