Default Tiger is Back and that is a fact - March 29th, 2009

I think all the people that were saying tiger will not be the same for the past 200+ days can not sit down, and enjoy the ride that is about too take place in two weeks. With that putt on 18 today Tiger proved that he is now back to his old self in making clutch puts. I think Jim said it best today that Tiger is the best pressure putter that has every played the game. What dose everyone else thing about Tigers comeback today and how do you think he will do at the masters after today? There are some things he still needs to work on such as consistency with his long game but his short game is on fire minus a few putts.

Can I be the first to say on behalf of everyone "No shit, Sherlock?" Lol.

It's fairly official at this point, Tiger is not human. Is it freaking anyone else out that this was his 6th win at Bay Hill and his 66th win for his career?

666! Mark of the beast!

Mommy, I'm scared....


FT-5 10 Degree, stiff shaft
Burner 5-wood
G10 Irons (3-PW)
CG14 56 Degree SW
BC1 Putter
Pro-V1

is my teacher


I started playing golf in May 2008. Addictive!

I lost the entire season (May 1st to October 1st) due to a back injury where I herniated 3 discs. My handicap reflects where I was before my injury.

this guy is just phenominal! just amazing! it was almost obvious he was going to sink that last putt on 18 but it was like you couldnt believe it at the same time! he is just a legend and the best player the game has ever and will ever see! at this point i cant see anybody challenging him at Augusta but ill see what i think this time next week and see if the likes of phil, sergio, padraig, villegas, kim, etc. produce anything special which may show people that they have something to offer at Augusta! but Tiger is just absolutely immense!

It would be awesome to see them both playing great golf and then there be a sunday match up. Here's the thing though. Tiger did tonight what he is famous for: coming through in those clutch situations and somehow pulling the win. I'd love to see him do the same thing to Phil in two weeks. I just don't think Phil can keep up with him. Come to think of it, where was Phil this week?

Tiger played a good final round, made some huge clutch putts.... but when you're down 5 shots with 18 to play, and scrambled your way around the course a bit, I look at it as a case of Ohair losing more than Tiger winning. He played a great round sure, but Ohair had all the oppurtunities to put him away, and just couldn't.

mate you surely cant take this away from him! he shot 67 on a course which most players were struggling to break par on and he was making putts like he did on 18 and was scrambling amazingly well! he's just phenominal!

I agree. O'Hair had his chances to put Tiger away and didnt capitalize on them. Not to take anything away from Tiger's win, he hit some incredible shots and found a way to win like he usually does.
