Tiger Woods' week in Australia was, for the latter half of 2010 at least, fairly predictable. Up and down golf and nowhere near winning; yet, some small, positive signs.

Woods actually finished in fourth at the JBWere Masters in Melbourne. A strong finish on Sunday shot him up the leader board, although never into contention to win. Aussie Stuart Appleby matched Tiger's round of 65 on Sunday and won by a shot over fellow-Aussie Adam Bland. Woods was three back.

"It would have been nice if I had gotten off to that start," Tiger said after his impressive 65 in the final round.

Woods, who won the event a year ago, has just one more shot at winning a golf tournament in 2010. Tiger will be in the field next month at the Chevron World Challenge in California.

"I can do this in streaks," he said. "Unfortunately, I haven't done this for an entire round. It takes time. The streaks are now lasting lon...
