Woods shot 67 in the final round of the Memorial, highlighted by an...

Tiger Woods‘ Memorial Tournament victory is encouraging, but it means nothing without a first-place finish in the U.S. Open on June 17. Golf pundits, and Woods’ fans, are telling the “comeback” story to anyone who will listen after Woods claimed victory in Ohio on Sunday.

While many experts had written golfing legend Tiger Woods off at 36 years old, the former star proved that there is still plenty of fuel left in the tank. That’s what a huge, two-stroke win in the Jack Nicklaus-designed Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club can do for a veteran who was thought to have lost his touch. After the toughest stretch of Tiger’s career, the last few...

There are two things that were confirmed in the Nicklaus’ Memorial Tournament win on Sunday. The first is that Tiger Woods is indeed back. The second is that Tiger Woods indeed crazy—but maybe not in the way you think. With the win in Dublin, OH, Tiger’s now tied for second in all-time PGA wins with Jack Nicklaus.

He drilled his chip and the gallery instantly went bananas—letting out a roar that should have the rest of the PGA terrified as we quickly approach the U.S. Open. Tiger was in the rough and staring at a slope in front of him that broke down as the fringe...

Tiger Woods‘ win at the Memorial Tournament on Sunday left him in a tie with Jack Nicklaus for second place on the PGA Tour’s all-time wins list, but still trailing “The Golden Bear” where it matters most. In the majors. Tiger has 14 major championships to his name, compared to 18 for Jack. The last time Tiger took home a title from one of golf’s four most prestigious...

Tiger Woods failed to enhance his legacy. On Sunday, Woods won the 2012 Memorial Championship, which marked just his second PGA tournament victory since 2009. While the triumph is valuable in terms of solidifying his once vanishing confidence, at this point in his career, only majors affect Tiger’s legacy. After the win, NBC Sports tweeted this fun fact surrounding the outcome’s supposed...

Don’t get me wrong, I like a good “return to prominence” story as much as the next guy. That being said, the Memorial Tournament victory doesn’t mean Tiger Woods is back to his old dominant ways. Woods certainly looked impressive as he tied Jack Nicklaus for the second-most career wins in PGA Tour history, especially with that downright filthy birdie on the 16th hole from 50...

For the second time in the last four Memorials, Tiger Woods came back from four strokes on the final day to capture the victory. Woods shot a five-under 67 on Sunday to end the tournament at nine-under, which was two shots better than Rory Sabbatini and Andres Romero. It was also tied for the low round of the day. This was Tiger’s second win on the year, the fifth of his career at...

Never let it be said that Tiger Woods has no sense of golf history. After winning his 72nd PGA Tour title at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Invitational, he has now tied Jack Nicklaus’s career victory total of 73 by winning the 2012 Memorial Tournament, Nicklaus’ tournament. And he got to shake Nicklaus’ hand afterward. “It’s been pretty nice. Since I turned...
