Tiger Woods’ Strong 2013 Is Sign He’ll Win Major Next Year

Tiger Woods is playing his best golf in five years, and he's winning tournaments with ease—they just aren't the right tournaments. As 2013 comes to a close, Woods can reflect on his PGA Player of the Year award, as he steels himself for a run at an elusive 15th major in 2014. There is ample reason to believe he will get it, even if the all-time record of 18 majors will remain permanently out of reach.

The 37-year-old Woods decided to stay sharp with a late-season appearance at the Turkish Open. Though he has not displayed singular focus—waking up at 3:30 a.m. to watch Stanford outlast Oregon in Thursday night's college football bonanza—he shot a 9-under 63 in the second round, moving himself from six strokes back of the leader to only one (per Associated Press, via ESPN). 

Woods has not won a European Tour event since 2009, but he has positioned himself for a run at Turkish delight with his sharp, if somewhat sleepy, shooting. He will have to contend with Swede Henrik Stenson, but Woods' last European Tour event proved to be a rabbit's foot. He missed the cut in Abu Dhabi back in January and won the Farmers Insurance Open on native soil the very next week. That was the first of Tiger's five tourney wins in 2013. 



It certainly seems like Tiger is ready to carry over his strong play into the next calendar year, and he gets a friendly run of some of his favorite courses with next year's majors held at Augusta National, Pinehurst, Royal Liverpool and Valhalla (in Kentucky, not Viking heaven). In fact, he is already the favorite to with the 2014 Masters. 



On any given day, Tiger can dominate the field. He is still that good, but inconsistency has been his chief hurdle over the last five years. Woods enjoyed an excellent 2013 and sits atop the world rankings after playing his finest golf since 2009.

He barely missed another $...
