Are you kidding me? Five strokes back to start the day, but none of that seemed to matter when the birdie at 2 fell. I think Tiger should be submitted for testing, but not for drugs. I'm convinced that if you went to take a sample of blood you may get some sort of oil or gasoline or something, because this guy is a machine.

I am as big of sports geek as there is, but even I have to admit that golf isn't the most exciting of sports to watch on TV, that is unless Tiger is on and then, nothing beats it. Every shot becomes riveting. Every putt a nail biter. And every fist pump, electrifying.

As golf was on Global yesterday, there was a chance of it disrupting the Evening News. We watched very closely for the afternoon, wondering not only if our show would be affect, but whether or not Tiger would do the impossible that he has made casually possible so many times before.

As he took the lead with just a few holes to play we hurried around the station, everyone getting set to go on-air, because at that point the end seemed inevitable. But then the tee shot on 17 and bunker...Bogey. Tied coming home. Could he birdie the last just like last year?

As the famed golfer Roy McAvoy says, "Fairways and greens." Or maybe it was his caddie. Anyways, Tiger found fairway. And then carved in an approach to 15 feet under the hole. As the 6 o'clock hour neared, Tiger did what he always does. Light up the sky with flash bulbs. Game, set, match. Look out Augusta!
