Tiger Woods is a winner again, capping off one of the most remarkable comebacks in golf history.
More than five years after his last win, after four surgeries on his lower back that left him wonder if he could ever play again, Woods ended his comeback season with a dominant victory at the Tour Championship.
Woods birdied the first hole at East Lake Golf Club, then never let anyone get closer than two shots – with two holes to go — as he completed his comeback.
Woods sent thousands of fans into delirium at East Lake watching the return of golf’s biggest star.
He is expected to go to No. 13 in the world after dropping as low as 1,199th late last year.
Woods is now a -220 favorite over Phil Mickelson in their match play even in November in Las Vegas.
Woods now trails Sam Snead, who won 82 times, for the most victories in PGA Tour history.
