Happy birthday, Tiger Woods . One of the greatest golfers in history turns 39 years old today, sports car rentals in shingle springs ca and what do you get for the guy who literally has everything? That s simple: one more major championship. The question is, will Woods finally be able to keep his health and his game together for four straight rounds on the sport s biggest stages?
Woods claims that his health isn t an issue right now, and for lack of any additional on-course evidence, that certainly seems to be the case. He didn t appear to be holding onto any discomfort from back injuries that kept him out of the Masters and the U.S. Open in 2014, and clearly hampered him in the Open and PGA Championships . He was battling the flu, however, and his short game was in shambles, but as bad as that looked, it shouldn t carry over if he s able to maintain a decent practice schedule.
Famously stuck on 14 major wins since taking the 2008 U.S. Open on a broken leg, Woods made the biggest news of the offseason by splitting with coach Sean Foley , and then bringing on consultant sports car rentals in shingle springs ca Chris Como in late November. Como isn t known as a guru like Foley or previous Woods coaches Butch Harmon and Hank Haney , but rather is an expert in biomechanics. If anybody can help Woods perform to his own insanely high standards while staying healthy, it s likely him.
If Tiger is to have any realistic hope of continuing his chase of Jack Nicklaus s record 18 career major wins, he likely needs to take at least one this season. Even if he is completely healthy, though, Woods still faces an uphill battle sports car rentals in shingle springs ca as the likes of Rory McIlroy , Rickie Fowler , and Jordan Spieth join the ranks previously sports car rentals in shingle springs ca reserved for Woods and Phil Mickelson .
Arguably the best chance Woods has for major no. 15 will come early in the year, specifically April s Masters Tournament. Other than an atrocious week in 2012, Woods has absolutely owned Augusta National for the majority sports car rentals in shingle springs ca of his career. It was his haven when he came back from his infidelity scandal (T-4 in 2010) and through injury in 2011 and 2013 (T-4 in both). Overall, he has 13 top-ten finishes at the Masters since 1997, and as long as he s in the field, he ll have to be one of the odd-on favorites.
His biggest challenge this year won t come from longtime rival Mickelson, but from young McIlroy, the no. 1 player in the world who is coming off two straight major wins himself, sports car rentals in shingle springs ca and who needs only the Masters to complete his own career Grand Slam.
Rory versus Tiger is every golf fan s dream pairing for Sunday at the Masters, but right now, the all of the pressure is firmly on Woods s shoulders. Should Woods fall short in April, the going will only get tougher from there. Should he fail to win No. 15 in 2015, then the chase may truly be over.
The good news? Things really can t get any worse for Woods than they did in 2014, and the last time he played a healthy season (2013), he only ran off five wins and was named PGA Tour player of the year. Still, sports car rentals in shingle springs ca the timer is running, and Father Time is undefeated. We ll know soon if Woods is ready to answer the call.
