Woods’ Masters Miracle Creates A Scene Like No Other
It’s official: he’s ba-a-a-ack. 43 year-old Tiger Woods did what many experts said he could not – win another major title. After four knee surgeries, four back surgeries, and many well-documented, off-the-course scandals, Woods was counted out by everybody – including Woods himself who wondered if he would ever play again, much less win a major.
Yesterday, Woods turned back the clock to win his fifth Masters title at a place, Augusta National Golf Club, where he dramatically announced himself to the world as a brash 21 year-old winning his first green jacket by a record 12 strokes in 1997.
Woods’ fellow golfers, prominent athletes in other sports and presidents – current and former – took notice of the achievement, which some are calling the greatest comeback in sports history.

I can’t thank my family, friends and fans enough for their support. Having my family by my side today is something I will never forget. To not only be able to play again, but to be able to win again, is something I will forever be grateful for. This jacket sure is comfortable. pic.twitter.com/LsOUX2dWH1

Very few people really know what @TigerWoods has been thru to get back to this point. So cool seeing him with Tida, Sam, Charlie, Erica and the rest of the team behind 18 green. Couldn’t be happier for him! What a great day for golf! #TheMasters
