#1 is Back

Dont look now golf world but Tiger Woods is back in action this week at one my personal favorite tournaments, the Accenture Match-Play Championship where he looks to defend his title.

Many people did not except Tiger to be back by this time as most were projecting the Masters for his return. He probably turned on a golf tournament in the last couple of weeks and knew that it was time to start dominating again. If Tiger won with his MCL torn, I dont really see how he cant win with a repaired knee now. I am not saying I think Woods will win four majors this year but there is always that possibility when dealing with the best individual in any sport.

There are so people who could give two shits about golf, this I know and those are the same people who would say "Tiger isnt an athlete because he is playing a sport that overweight guys over the age of fifty can play." So wrong to anyone who thinks that. Tiger has to play four rounds of golf in consecutive days therefore being on his feet for a good four hour time span in where he has to focus on every shot. He also consistently hits a golf ball over 300 yards with pure accuracy something that not a lot of us could do.

The other thing about Tiger are that makes him the ultimate best is that he is the only athlete in his sport where others around him crumble because they cannot deal with the pressure of having Tiger on your ass or on the other hand, golfers just give up because they know that Tiger is the best on the course that week by round two.
