Tiger Woods Hits 25-ft Birdie Putt on 18 to Win Arnold Palmer Invitational
FanIQ Blog —
You think Tiger Woods cares about his winning streak? What a putt, and what a reaction.
Before we go all March Madness on you today, there's always room for a buzzer beating birdie putt to win a tournament, even if it is golf.
Woods has now 5 straight PGA events and appears very likely that will continue through the Masters at the very least. Byron Nelson has the record (11) which had been considered unbeatable.
I say this every time I do a Tiger post, but I just hope everyone realizes we're watching what could very well go down as the most dominant athlete in all of ...
The Escalating Cultural Phenomenon That is Tiger
The Big Lead —
Regardless to your thoughts on golf - boring, uppity, too slow - we urge you to watch the improbable game-winning putt by Eldrick Woods Sunday afternoon. At this moment in sports, Tiger has no closest spiritual heir. In 30 or 40 years, we’ll all talk wistfully about Tiger the same way that Peter Gammons raves about Babe Ruth, Dick Schapp raved about Ali and everyone raves about Jordan. Tiger’s that nice right now. When we’re long gone and ESPN reveals its list of best athletes in the 21st century, there’s absolutely no way Tiger isn’t in the Top 5.

TIGER WOODS ISN'T NOT BAD AT LOSING
With Leather - Sports news and gossip, panda sex, and the occasional Toonces the driving cat Photoshop —
Tiger Woods is winning tournaments so regularly right now that I've resorted to the rare quadruple-negative just to mix up the headlines a little. Yesterday Tiger sunk this 25-foot birdie putt on the final hole of the tournament to edge out legendary Alabama football coach Bart Bryant and win the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Orlando. He has won all five PGA Tour events so far this season. There have been five winning streaks of at least five tournaments in PGA Tour history. Woods owns three of them, with the others belonging to Hogan (6) and Byron Nelson, ...
Imagine If He Dedicated Himself…
Intentional Foul —
To golf:
We’ve written five posts about El Tigre since Intentional Foul launched and it’s already apparent simple adjectives do no justice. Neither does nifty little sayings like “That Tiger’s pretty good” and such. What this man is doing to the PGA is without peer. On any sporting stage. Not Michael’s twice three-in-a-row, not Federer’s domination of tennis.
We’re fond of saying Tiger is a Terminator around here but what he did on the 18th at Bay Hill yesterday surpassed that thinking. So much so ...
Why Watching Tiger Woods is Pretty Damn Great
Dogs That Chase Cars —
With all the highlights of analysts picking really tough games yesterday on ESPN, you might have missed in the sports shuffle the Tiger Woods putt to win. Like the Minnesota jumper a la Christian Laettner, this highlight was worth seeing over and over again. Well, here you go.
Moving Pictures Proving That Tiger Woods' Only Flaw Is That He's Prematurely Balding
FanHouse —
Filed under: Golf Yesterday Tiger Woods won his 64th career PGA Tour event and his third victory of the 2008 season. Unlike the beatdown he administered at Torrey Pines earlier this year, the Arnold Palmer Invitational came down to the final stroke of the tournament. Woods had been shorting putts all day and hadn't made a putt of more than 20 feet all week. Which is why it makes perfect sense in Tiger World that he would drain a 21-footer on his final putt of the tournament to beat 45-year-old journeyman Bart Bryant by one stroke. The notion of ...
Tiger Woods Bay Hill 2008: Tiger Woods wins again
Hail Mary Jane —
This is five in a row for our boy Tiger. So naturally the debate comes back up. Is Tiger Woods the most dominant athlete in all of sports?
Here is footage from the dramatic 18th hole at Bay Hill’s Arnold Palmer invitational yesterday. This shot won him the tournament.

Why You Do’em Like that Tiger?
SportSayers.com —
It was all square going into the 18th hole at Bay Hill and Tiger had about a 22- footer left. He had to make this putt to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational or he probably was going to a playoff with Bart Bryant. Tiger had not made a putt of this length the entire tournament. Why did he save his best for last? Because he is toying with the field. He lets them get close and then just laughs in their face with putts like this…Can you match it? Hell NO!

TIGER WOODS: STILL AWESOME, I GUESS
With Leather - Sports news and gossip, panda sex, and the occasional Toonces the driving cat Photoshop —
Tiger Woods entered Sunday’s round of the Bay Hill Invitational down by five shots. He finished the day with a 67, including a dramatic birdie on 18 capped by a 20-foot putt (pictured) to win the tournament by one shot. Everyone gets all crabby when people root for the Red Sox or the Lakers, but I guess front-running for Tiger is still cool. It’s as if his every conquest is a metaphorical blow to the curmudgeoned oligarchy of the white man. Let us laugh as this distinguished gentleman invades your prissy country clubs and walks off with all your trophies and leaves ...
Tiger Won. Again.
Rumors and Rants —
Anyone remember this?
That was at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in 2008. Tiger nailed a long putt on the 18th hole to win the tournament by one stroke. At the time, it was just evidence of Tiger’s incredible greatness and seeming invincibility.
A US Open win, a bum wheel, and a few months’ rest later, Tiger did that shit again (includes video).
For the third time in his career, Woods won Arnie’s tournament on the 18th hole. The putt was about half as long as last year’s, but damned if it wasn’t just as money.
During that ...
