Tigers Woods Announces his Return – @ 2010 Masters
Tuesday, March 16th, 2010 | Golf, Sports, Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods announced today that he will be returning to the game of golf at the 2010 Masters in Augusta, Georgia in a little over 3 weeks. It will certainly be a “Masters to Remember”.
Woods issued a statement today, portions of which read as follows: “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.. 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… I have undergone almost two months of inpatient therapy and I am continuing my treatment. Although I’m returning to competition, I still have a lot of work to do in my personal life.”
Woods last played on November 15th when he won the Australian Masters in Melbourne, Australia. Woods has won 82 worldwide tournaments, including 14 major championships – 4 of them Masters wins. He has been out of the public eye since a November car accident raised awareness to his marital infidelities and since then he has been trying to save his marriage and undergo treatment to prove to his wife – Elin Nordegren-Woods – that he is a changed man. Hah!
18 alleged affairs and two months of therapy and the guys is all-of-a-sudden a faithful man. If you believe that one, I’ll sell you the grounds that Augusta National occupies for a buck.
In any event, Woods’ return will certainly help TV ratings and draw flocks of people to Augusta National for the 2010 Masters. Can’t wait to see how many sponsors who gave up on Woods start banging on his door – are you there Buick, Accenture? – once he wins this thing in a few weeks. Can’t wait to see the hypocrisy in action when it mega dollars are at stake…
