Rookies and Veterans primed to take on Tiger Woods

There are two PGA Tours right now, one for Tiger Woods and the other for everybody else. On the Tiger Tour winning is the only thing that matters, and history provides the only competition. On the other Tour the goals are more modest, and players measure success incrementally, whether it's in the agate of the Ryder Cup points list or something more intangible, such as gaining valuable experience or battle-testing a rebuilt swing. Last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill is destined to be remembered for Woods's theatrics in prevailing, but on the margins plenty of other players scored small victories of their own, and these personal triumphs may eventually help bridge the two Tours.
