Tiger Woods has made a promising start to the Arnold Palmer invitational by carding a first-round 69 at Bay Hill.
The former world number one calmed talk of his recent injuries by finishing on three under par, three shots back from joint leaders Charlie Wi and Jason Dufner.
Woods pulled out of his latest PGA tournament with an ankle problem but looked at ease as he dropped just one shot in a solid opening round.
Fellow Americans Bubba Watson, Anthony Kim and Nick Watney and Brit Justin Rose are among a host of players who sit alongside Woods on three-under.
The tournament will be the 14-time major winner's last before The Masters at Augusta, which starts on April 5.
