Getting your player ready...
Brendan Jones, the last man to qualify for the 64-man Accenture Match Play Championship field this week in Arizona, was home with his family in Australia when he heard Tiger Woods’ announcement that he was “ready to play again” since undergoing season-ending surgery in June. Jones is no math major, but he knew the No. 64 seed plays the No. 1 seed in the opening round, and he knew who was No. 1. “I got a few chills up the back of my neck,” Jones said. “Pretty much everybody has said, ‘If things don’t go your way, just take out his knee.’ I hope it doesn’t get to that.” The Associated Press; Getty Images file photo
