Olazabal after a classic finish

What Nick Faldo has referred to as "The Tigerless Tour" resumes in Atlanta tomorrow with the BellSouth Classic.

With Tiger Woods at home preparing for next week's Masters, it offers a chance to the likes of Phil Mickelson, Jesper Parnevik, Ernie Els and Jos? Maria Olazabal to build their confidence going into Augusta and the season's first Major.

Olazabal has yet to make the impact he was hoping for after joining the US Tour this season, but climbed impressively into 12th at Sawgrass last week with closing rounds of 68 and 69 after surviving the cut with nothing to spare.

Ian Woosnam is also in the field this week - quite a contrast to last year when he turned up, only to discover his management company had forgot to enter him.
