Woods will win and continue to win this season

Look out, world. Tiger Woods is back.

After surgery on his left knee, which was severely hurt after last year’s amazing U.S. Open victory, Woods is returning to action today at the WGC-Accenture Match Play.

The biggest question is if Tiger came back too early. I’m not one to question the best golfer to ever pick up a club. He’s come back from injuries before, to the same knee. They questioned his drive after his father died and he won two majors and eight total events.

After the birth of his first child they questioned his focus. He won another major that year and seven events that season.

Now after surgery and the birth of a second child, I have no doubt Tiger will win, and win often this season. Lets just face it, he’s just that good. Just that much of a freak of an athlete who happens to play golf.

He’s an NFL quarterback with a golf club and that’s why Eldrick will return to the course as the steely, unwavering force that is Tiger Woods.
