Luke Donald looking to season opener

World number three Luke Donald has admitted that he is looking forward to beginning his 2013 campaign in the Northern Trust Open in Los Angeles.

The Englishman has not played a competitive tournament since November, but will attempt to return to winning ways when he competes in the United States later this month.

"Practice is tough, competing is fun," Donald told reporters at a press conference.

American Bill Haas won the Northern Trust Open last year.
