He has been for quite some time now, the Michael Jordan of his sport. Tiger Woods with a last gasp putt to win a tournament? Put it in the books. And maybe, His Airness is quite possibly, the Tiger Woods of basketball.That is just for semantics or the clever advertising hook, but the reality of it all is that timeless mutter professional golfers swear under their breath when the gap closes between Tiger and Bear.
Did you honestly think that he was finished?
A round of 67, a five under par of 275 total then he delivered the coup de grace with a sliver of sunlight left to win Bay Hill. Sean O Hair, "I was born in the wrong era."
Don't worry Sean. Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, and Karl Malone say the same thing about your buddy.
"It really feels good to be back in contention again," exhaled Woods with the toothiest smile since his last victory nine months ago. "To feel the rush and have to deal with everything down the stretch."
And the stretch is where Tiger Woods makes his living.
O'Hair pulled abreast on the 17th hole with a bogey but that was for sheer drama. He seemed spent as he missed eight of his fairways and his miserable day allowed Woods to overtake him. He still had a chance though but his miss from 38-feet out was all she wrote.
Woods reached deep inside, measured his putt some but didn't have the benefit of time. He's been through this situation so many times before and did anyone think he was going to miss?
