It's been a while since Tiger Woods won a major championship—five years and counting. Woods probably knows it down to the day. Certainly, no one is looking forward to breaking that non-major streak more than him.

In 2014, he has a great shot at capturing at least one major, if not more, and here's why: There are horses for courses. We all know that saying, and nobody proves it more than Tiger Woods.
