Swing coach split marks start of major-less drought
London, Mar 29: Woods parted company with his swing coach Butch Harmon by the end of 2002, and has not won a major since. Hardly surprisingly, many of his peers now believe it is well-nigh time for the world number one to reunite with Harmon.

Eight-times major winner Woods, though, would prefer to work things out on his own.
''Butch and I really didn't work a lot the last two or three years,'' he told reporters at the TPC at Sawgrass earlier this week.
''Our biggest task was from '97 through '98, when I changed my swing. After that, it was basically kind of maintenance here and there. I've been doing that the last two years on my own.''
Yet something has to change if Woods is to regain his stranglehold on the game.
