Nathan returns to tournament golf this week after spending a week at his home at Craig Ranch in Dallas.

The Transitions Championship is next on the agenda for Nathan, the tournament being played at the Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club's Copperhead Course at Palm Harbour on the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Nathan has played this event in all four of his seasons to date on the PGA Tour, recording a best finish of 12th in 2007.

"I had a great week  off," said Nathan. "I didn't so much really but am hitting it ok and played well in the Monday Pro Am. This is really the first week of hard fast greens and a generally tough course so we may see effect of new grooves a little more this week. There will be plenty of short game practice, My putter is still not quite there but improving."

Nathan has an early tee time on day one when he will play with Boo Weekley and John Senden
