Just as the world of golf was beginning to ask the question "Will Tiger Woods ever be the same again?", crash bang wallop he goes and wins in typical Tiger fashion, making up 6 shots on his final day playing partner Sean O'Hair to win the Bay Hill by 1 shot. With a 15 foot birdie putt across the last green to seal it, too.
In the nick of time, too. Phil Mickelson was about to take over as World number one (following Woods' lengthy absence last year) and while I've nothing against Lefty per se, I don't like to see anyone getting to number 1 in golf purely on the strength of a couple of recent US Tour wins, when they're not even a current major champion. It makes the ranking system look as volatile as the one they seem to use in women's tennis.
