TIGER WINS 14TH MAJOR GOLF TOURNAMENT
In the U. S. Open golf tournament today, Tiger Woods won his 14th major title in a playoff at Torrey Pines. He is just 4 victories in major tournaments away from surpassing Jack Nicklaus as the best golfer in history. I believe that this was an especially satisfying victory for Tiger. He had major knee surgery about 6 weeks ago. And this was his first tournament after the surgery. Although he tried to hide the pain, the cameras picked up many moments when Tiger's face showed pain after making an important shot. To get to the playoff round today, Tiger had to make a spectacular 12 foot put on the 18th hole yesterday. Sinking this put was both a birdie (one stroke under par)) and a tie to enable him to play against Rocco Mediate in a playoff today, which Tiger won.

Hey! I was amazed to hear on the news early this morning that people who have purchased tickets in advance are now asking for their money back now that Tiger is off the radar for the rest of the season. Nice to have such a following.
Hey dj's mommy. I agree that this is nice. Men's golf is divided into 2 classes -- (1)Tiger, (2) The Rest. One would think that "The Rest" would be glad that Tiger is on med. leave. But I think that asking for money back is an indication that they probably are sad because of lower purses.
