injury triumph tiger's finest hour

TIGER Woods turned 33 on December 30 last and the world awaits the Great One's return.
Meanwhile, let's just remind everyone of the facts and figures that underpin his deserved reputation as the king of golf.
Since he turned pro in 1996, Tiger has won 65 times on the PGA Tour and claimed 14 Major wins -- four Masters, three US Opens, three British Opens and four US PGA titles.
He has failed to win a major in only four years as a pro -- 1996, 1998, 2003 and 2004.
A survey in the latest edition of Golf Digest Ireland asked 21 PGA Tour players: 'What was more impressive to you -- Tiger Woods winning the 2000 US Open by 15 strokes or winning the 2008 US Open despite his knee injury?
The result was 67pc impressed by the'08 achievement and 33pc by the 15-stroke victory.
