OH MY GOD!!! This is just CRAZY!!!
Just when you think that Tiger Woods’ well of miracles has finally gone dry, he comes up with one more at the most important and unlikely of moments. That is what happened today as Tiger, who struggled with his game, his knee, and even his decision making all day, some how made birdie on the last hole without ever having his ball touch the fairway. In a U.S. Open that is supposed to be impossible. To do that on the last hole to force a playoff is unthinkable. For Tiger, it was just a new way to come up with the same amazing result.
His birdie putt on the final hole today insures that no matter what happens tomorrow this is the most exciting U.S. Open in history. It may even be the greatest golf tournament in history.
While Tiger’s left knee may never again be 100%, his courage, determination, will, and ability to rise to the moment are still the best the sports world (and maybe humanity) has ever seen. Even if he is just human (is that really possible after this weekend?) we are so lucky to be living in his era.
What else can you say?
I was lost and now I am found.
Praise Tiger. Good luck Rocco.
