Our favorite golfer. Tiger Woods, the American golfer. The icon for any American golfer is solely rested in this man no matter what mistakes he makes everyone respects his game. As the first day of the Masters Tournament egged on Tiger was not going in the direction he needed to successfully place himself back on top ending his winless streak since November in 2009. He shot 74 in the first round. However, to many spectators surprise Tiger came out with his game face that we saw in 2001, 2002 and 2005 and shot only a 66 putting himself somewhat back in to the chasing group of straggling golfers. Then it happened... On that Sunday April day Tiger came out like the animal he is and made a come back for the lead, he began to sink clutch putts and hit fairways repetitively, it seemed as if he had placed the divorce/separation with his wife in the past as he began to envision himself in a green jacket. Unfortunately, in the last nine holes Tiger failed to hit several putts that would have put him in the lead or in a draw for first. Overall, he was capable of placing himself in the position, but he could never finish out to take over the lead. Tiger impressed me, mainly because he overcame controversy and came and played like the Tiger i knew when i was younger and ended up in the top ten.
