(Reuters) - Tiger Woods did not express confidence about being 100 percent fit for next month's British Open but said on Wednesday his injured left elbow would be "good enough" for the year's third major championship.

The American world number one has been hampered by a left elbow strain for the past six weeks, and was advised by his doctors to skip this week's AT&T National in Bethesda, Maryland where he was scheduled to defend his title.
