3 clear going into the final round. To win this would really mark his return and possibly set him up to go on and claim more majors. The Masters perhaps next year?
After 1,876 days Tiger has had a PGA Tour win. Now that's a comeback!
Agreed, but just how much pressure was Justin Rose under going up at 18. To throw away the FedEx cup, then win it back with a birdie on the last showed immense character.

Not forgetting the lucky bounce out of bunker
Unless I'm mistaken, the ball pitched over the bunker. Unlucky with your FedEx cup bet on Tiger.
Rejoice in the fact that you are alive whilst one of the greatest sportsmen ever is plying his trade.
The man is a legend.
I've been lucky enough to enjoy Ali, Nicklaus, Borg, Boycott, Cruyff, Lillee Haglar, Watson, Connors, Viv Richards, Maradonna, Ballesteros, Botham, McEnroe, Dalglish, Sampras, Faldo, Brooking, Tyson, Warne, Zidane, Federer, etc etc, however this man is different, so different.
He will, if he's not already, become the greatest golfer ever.
They say that each sport has it's Once in a Game player:
Boxing - Ali
Football - Pele
Cricket - Bradman
Tennis - Laver
Golf - was going to be Nicklaus, but I think Tiger will take over.
It’s a fascinating topic discussing who was the greatest in any given sport. In the 1970s a fantasy fight was filmed Ali v Marciano. It was as scientific as it could be with hours of filming determining the strengths and weaknesses of both fighters. Marciano won by a knockout in the 13th round - and died (in real life) three weeks later in a plane crash.
Bradman over Garfield Sobers?
Pele over Ronaldo? My favourite footballer - not necessarily the greatest - was Stanley Matthews. Oh, I forgot Sam Bartram.
I think for Tiger to come back from injury and personal problems to win another major is for me one of the greatest sporting comebacks of all time. I was convinced he wouldn't win again and I'm delighted he proved me wrong.

Not a golf lover but what a sporting comeback, personal issues (self inflicted), horrible injuries that would normally finish a pro career, but to come back from all that a win a major is remarkable, a great Tiger story.
Comments
I really hope he can stay injury free until next year's majors.
Agree, but maybe have a slight relapse next weekend...

And another 5 minutes just 6 minutes later.
