Tiger won, he screwed up in life, but who doesn’t in life. The whole gallery was for him, I’m glad for him, and his family.  |

He certainly plays well...and as far as screw ups....we all do...just the way it is in life...just pray that we learn from it.

Amen to that...we all screw up. Some do it publicly, some do it in private. Some do it in a horrendous way, others in a relatively benign way...but we all screw up.
Good for Tiger. However, regardless of his screwing up, the quality of his golf did take a big dip. I'm glad he has managed to pull it back. Not many do that.

I'm not a Tiger fan, but good golf is good golf. You earn it, you deserve it.

It's always good to see a story of redemption.

It's always good to see a story of redemption. +1 I have had my screw ups, I have just never been on a stage the size Tiger has...... I remember when he won the green jacket last time, and Fuzzy Zoeller said the off color joke that pretty much ended his career....I remember Tiger could have made a big deal of it, but he handled it with class, and said something like "that is just stuff guys say". |

Poor Molinari. Played an exceptional 64 holes, faltered a bit, but hung in tied for the lead. Then on the 68th hole, his wedge nicks a pine cone and the ball drops into a pond. Game over.

Augusta National is such a fickle and unforgiving golf course, to manage a win at Tiger’s age and with his health issues of the last several years, is quite a feat. Redemption indeed!

Glad he did it. To me he is young, but for golf, the "older" guy beat the kids! Good to see.

I've never played a round of golf in my life, and thus I've never cared a plug about Tiger Woods one way or another. However, I AM a great fan of guts, try and overcoming all personal screw-ups to come back and win again years later. So for that, my hat's off to the guy.

This might be akin to a Triple Crown winner sustaining a non-fatal injury as a four year old, being put out to stud, and then 10 years later coming back to win the Kentucky Derby. If, of course, they would allow an old broken down former great to run the race. Not a great comparison, but reflective of the nature of the comeback, at least in my opinion. We will not see something like it any time soon. |

...the fact that the dude came back up from such an epic slump certainly speaks volumes about his character. As stated earlier, I am not a fan, but the achievement stands...
