Tiger To Stop Having Sex and Return For Masters

PALM HARBOR, Fla. -- Tiger Woods will make his highly anticipated return to competitive golf at the Masters. The world's No. 1-ranked player, who has never missed the year's first major as a professional, announced in a statement Tuesday that Augusta National Golf Club will be the site of his comeback. "The Masters is where I won my first major and I view this tournament with great respect. After a long and necessary time away from the game, I feel like I'm ready to start my season at Augusta," Woods said in a statement. "The major championships have always been a special focus in my career and, as a professional, I think Augusta is where I need to be, even though it's been a while since I last played." The Masters is scheduled for April 8-11, with the first and second rounds airing on ESPN beginning at 4 p.m. ET. Woods last played on Nov. 15, when he won the Australian Masters in Melbourne for his 82nd career victory. His world then unraveled less than two weeks later; he was involved in a one-car crash outside his Florida home that required a hospital visit and let to a series of revelations about his personal life that included a later admission of multiple affairs. "I have undergone almost two months of inpatient therapy and I am continuing my treatment," Woods said in his statement. "Although I'm returning to competition, I still have a lot of work to do in my personal life."

Excuse me if I'm a little tired of the Tiger talk but his return was a must post. It's obviously going to be the hottest story out today unless the entire starting 5 of Kentucky Basketball decides to walk. Which is a high possibility but that's not the point. Golf needs Tiger. I haven't watched the sport ever since he left and I'll watch with more intrigue now that he's returning with a new sex symbol image. The part of it all that I don't understand is why people are doubting his abilities. Yeah, he might be a little rusty and shit but this isn't a pitcher coming off elbow surgery. The guy wasn't hurt besides maybe some busted teeth and herpes but that doesn't effect his swing. Nerves won't be an issue. Tiger has ice water in his veins. Always has. Dude loves the fact that all eyes will be on him. Bottom line is Tiger is going to crush the Masters. Absolutely CRUSH. My only hope is that he sports that sex rehab beard in the first round. There's just something about being at peace with yourself and growing a beard to tell the world you're OK.
