Tiger Talk

I am going to take a quick break from fantasy talk here and touch base on some Tiger Woods, this is for you Burke Lord.  Mr. Eldrick Tont Woods. Actually having a pretty successful come back this year despite critics.  The only criticism for Tiger is his lack of winning at a Major.  Lets take a look at his Major finishes:

Masters: Tied 40th at +5
US Open: Tied 21st at +7
British Open: Tied 3rd at -3

Slowly getting better and it's only a matter of time until he takes home another Major...It might have to be next year, but I see a green Jacket in his future.  The issue is not him sucking, its the field around him getting better as well; the fact that there has been 18 different champions in the last 18 different Majors, Tiger being one of them (2008 US Open). Which ultimately, I think, is good for the sport overall.

Major status set aside, let's take a look at some different stats this year. Tiger is number one on the money list by about 250,000 bucks. Tiger is number one in FedEx Cup points by 32. Tiger has the most wins in the season with 3. He is tied for 9th with 5 top ten finishes and has made 10 of 13 cute this season.  All in all, a pretty damn successful year so far. oh...AND...Tiger is #2 in the World, working towards his #1 ranking again.

Tiger is now just as good as the rest of the top players in the league. He is still the reason I started playing (as well as most any male my age) and I will defend to the end.  Tiger will be on top soon enough.
