Prince James Story, Louisville Courier Journal

Tiger Woods didn't have his best week at the Masters, finishing 60th at 16 over par, but the golf legend is planning to play in the PGA Championship at Valhalla next month and golf's other majors.

Woods, 48, said he is very familiar with Augusta National, but he will need to brush up on the other courses.

"This is a golf course I knew going into it," Woods said of Augusta National, "so I'm going to do my homework going forward at Pinehurst (U.S. Open), Valhalla and Troon (the British Open), but that's kind of the game plan."

The PGA Championship is scheduled May 16-19.
