Tiger Woods has warned his rivals he is back to his explosive best as he prepares to make his PGA Tour seasonal debut.

Woods is in California for the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am this week, where he is appearing at the event for the first time since 2002.

Woods believes he began to see the fruits of his labours at the end of last season, finishing third at the Australian Open before ending a two-year title drought with victory at the Chevron World Challenge.

Woods has struggled with his form since his self-imposed exile from golf following revelations about his private life in November 2010, but the former world No. 1 believes he is finally showing the kind of consistency that saw him win 14 majors.

"I am at peace with where I'm at," Woods said. "I have had to make some changes but I am starting to see the results of that now. My last four events I really played well and I need to be building on that but I am heading in the right direction.

"It has been huge that I have been able to train again. Rehabbing and training are totally different scenarios - I have been rehabbing pretty much the last couple of years and haven't really trained at all but now I am healthy enough to do it.

"I able to practise literally all day if I want to, for as long as I want and not have to go get treatment, all of those monotonous things just to be able to tee up the next day.

"That is no longer the case so I have made huge progress. My body is feeling explosive again, I am hitting the ball further and able to do the things Sean wants me to do with my swing."
