Notice Tiger Woods Coming Back?

He’s baaaaaaack!

Tiger Woods is climbing the charts again. Did you pay attention to what happened this past weekend in Australia at the PGA tour?

Greg Chambers won the The Emirates Australian Open Championship.  Finishing second was John Senden. Did you notice who finished third? Tiger Woods! He actually led the tournament for the first 2 days despite the fact that he is usually a slow starter.  ...And the next week he delivered the clinching point in the 2011 President's Cup in Melbourne, Australia by winning his singles match 4-3 over Aaron Baddelely.

It looks like Tiger’s golf game is coming back.
NO surprise to me. Soon after his disaster he started playing golf again. Pretty soon, he had fallen off the charts.

In some of the rankings he had fallen down to the 150th player in the categories of putting and driving. At the time when people were jumping on him the worst I told my nephew, who is a mini tour player, Tiger would be back because “He’s meaner than the other guys/.”

To me, Tiger is a guy who wants it more.
It’s not that he’s better and more talented. He has developed himself more than everyone. The criticism hits him deeper. It’s not the criticism that brings him down, he just despises it. It’s not that he can’t take it, he doesn’t want to take it because he knows he doesn’t have to.  

He’s a born winner.
There’s a saying that winners win and losers lose. When you make a big blunder of course you’ve got to accept responsibility and spend some quiet time with your maker and the people involved to work things out the best you can.

But, at some point, you’ve got to work things out and get back to what you do.
