"I'm still part of the event and working hard behind the scenes as always," Woods said ahead of today's first round.<br /><br />The potentially touchy situation is just part of the fall-out that Woods continues to face in the wake of a scandal that saw him take a five-month break from the game. He wasn't directly asked about media reports that he has agreed to a divorce settlement with wife Elin, but he did indirectly talk about his life off the course. <br />"Outside the ropes there are certainly still distractions," Woods said.<br /><br />"I think my life out on tour is becoming more normalised, talking to you guys (the media) about why I haven't won a tournament this year or why I hit this shot or that shot.<br /><br />"It certainly wasn't like that at the beginning of the year but now that certainly has changed, and for the good." 

Tiger Woods is the blockbuster attraction at this week's AT&T National, with golf's biggest star out to defend his title in his only tour tune-up for the British Open.
