    The Great Debate: Is Tiger Woods The Greatest Comeback Story Ever In Sports??
    It is definitely a possibility

    He could barely get out of bet a few years ago and now on top of the game against the greatest golf fields we have ever seen at 42 years old.

    I say top 3 stories ever, he is only athlete that was ever bigger than the game, ratings are threw the roof now on the PGA tour, every tourney breaking records he plays in with crowds. I never seen anything like yesterdays crowds

      Ill admit, I thought he’d never play again, let alone win again.

      i hope he can keep it up and doesn’t hurt his back again

      he is golf, nobody cares about golf unless he’s playing

        He's smartened up and started hanging out at the local Perkins again. His "friends" help to shake off the cobwebs = winner winner chicken dinner

                What obstacles???? He's a womaniser = self-inflicted
                Pill popper = self-inflicted
                Injuries = every athlete cops them

                Stop making excuses for this pig. Lovely that he won but he's been an arrogant cokksukker his whole life until his wife tuned his head with a golf club, tried to pretend he was sorry and is back to the same old rubbish. Trash who happens to have talent in a sport.

                      The guy had 4 back surgeries, spinal fusion, couldn’t even walk for a period of time.

                      Chill out. Lots of athletes are jerks. Doesn’t mean you can’t respect the comeback.


                      Also... Tiger’s comeback is not complete yet.

                              i gotta admit watching his interview last night i was thinking, this guy has always been a complete jerk, yet we as people love him and root for him no matter what. it is an odd combination he has of being a jerk and being great. a cool jerk. but the people running behind him like forrest gump was like unseen ever. even in his prime.

                                the biggest question as he is not getting younger. can he compete highly until 45? if he wins one more major is it complete? does he need to win 2 of the next 12? those are his last opportunities

                                  magic beating hiv is the greatest comeback we've seen
                                  ray lewis going to jail and then coming back from it is a good story
                                  hardy beating up his girlfriend and still able to play football is a crazy story too

                                    most experts agree and even think its Tigers biggest win ever

                                    Only athlete that non sports fans watch and pay to watch

                                    The entire globe was watching him yesterday not ghetto trash NFL

                                        Perhaps Woods has finally cleaned up his act now and doing the right things.. Like staying sober. Look what has happened.. Good for Tiger if that's the case.

                                                  Yeah man, golf requires no athleticism. C'mon man.

                                                      Pretty tough and physically demanding swinging those golf clubs and walking from green to green.. Takes alot of endurance, cardio and physical strength.. ...

                                                      Golf is a joke, complete hand and eye coordination event only and really shouldn't be labelled as a sport.. Have we ever seen a golfer even break a sweat golfing in the majors?

                                                        Any fool who thinks golf doesn't require athleticism has never tried to be good at it

                                                        For hundreds of thousands of years the men who could perform with coolness and precision under pressure are the ones who fed themselves and their families, not the ones who could run the fastest.

Lovely that he won but he's been an arrogant cokksukker his whole life until his wife tuned his head with a golf club, tried to pretend he was sorry and is back to the same old rubbish. Trash who happens to have talent in a sport.
