Tiger Woods has still not set a date for his return to golf, according to PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem.

There had been speculation that Finchem had called a press conference on Monday to shed some light on when the world No. 1 would return to the course.

However, Finchem insisted that he was still unaware of when Woods would resume his golf career - despite persistent rumours of a Masters comeback in April.

"We have the general information that Tiger is preparing to play and there's been a lot of speculation about when he might come back out," he said.

"Tiger's indicated to us that he will give us reasonable notice because we know we've got some preparation to do.

"But I don't have a specific date when he's going to come back and I can only assume, though, that all this speculation about late March and early April, if he is going to start back then, we will know soon. Beyond that I can't help you."

Woods, who is practicing with his swing coach at his Florida house, has been out of action since November because of a sex scandal.
