It’s hard to imagine a professional golfer who won three times in 2012, won $6.1 million dollars and climbed from No. 23 in the World Golf Rankings at the beginning of the season to No. 2 at the end is in search of his mojo or swagger.

But, indeed, Tiger Woods will head into the 2013 season in such a state. Yes, his win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard broke a two and a half year winless streak. And yes, he showed flashes of brilliance at times during the season.

Yeah, it’s a really good year, no doubt, but winning a major championship just makes it a great year. The majors are such a different animal and different breed, and we place so much emphasis on them.”
