SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Tiger Woods is back.

So is his tooth.

The former world No. 1, making his first start of 2015 in the Waste Management Phoenix Open, showed up before the crack of dawn Tuesday at TPC Scottsdale. Upon reaching the driving range he flashed a smile that revealed not a single gap.

On Jan. 19, in a surprise visit to Italy to see his girlfriend, Lindsey Vonn, win her record 63rd World Cup race, Woods was wearing a mask sporting a toothy skull figure. But when the mask dropped, there was a gap where one of his upper incisors used to be. Another tooth also was cracked.
