If you’re watching golf everyone watches Woods a lot of the time

if your watching golf you need to have a really serious look at your life to see where it went wrong.

Sorry to any golfers out there, but I'm with Mark Twain on golf: it's a good walk, spoiled. Boring as hell!

He did.

And that is quite possibly the greatest comeback in the history of individual (as opposed to team) sport.

Yeah pretty impressive to go through back surgery and doubt that he’ll ever play competitive golf again. To performing like that against the best players in the world.

Very special. Thats what elite sport is, right there. Performing when it actually matters.

His focus and then quality at the end was exceptional.

Sport is wonderful.

Each to his own, I say. Remarkable career come back and the guy seems to have brought enjoyment to many, not all of them golfers...fnar,  fnar. .  

However, if the huddled masses were not watching this, they'd only be out on the streets getting the way of the rest of us.  I tried to like the game, , oh how I tried . I took lesson after lesson until the instructor finally found out what was wrong. Apparently,  I was standing too close to the ball. ....after I'd hit it.

Yep, unbelievably frustrating game....especially as my sporting prowess has always been with the biff rather than finesse. More or less given up myself but what a comeback from Tiger

He's an inspiration to us all.

I was rooting for Molinari , and the guy is so cool and robotic his errors were a big shock . Personally I don’t like woods . His behaviour , demeanour and  arrogance haven’t made him very likeable in the past and he’s probably more respected than anything more personable , but you can’t deny his amazing comeback and steely competitive determination . Just like in his prime he intimidated and crushed them with his game and aura on the course

I agree with TonyXIII, it is an awful waste of time, but the back story (Bad pun) to Woods is amazing. Even his DUI accusation couldn't detract from what he has pulled around.
