Column: Tiger Woods delivers in Augusta to complete greatest comeback story in sports history

For five hours on a rainy Sunday, the eyes of America were fixed on one thing. It wasn’t the first round of the NBA Playoffs or the final season of Game of Thrones. It was Eldrick Tont Woods, also known as Tiger, strutting down the fairways in Augusta, Georgia, with his trademark red and black Sunday fit, on his way to a fifth green jacket.

On Sunday, April 14, Tiger Woods overcame a third-round deficit to claim his first major championship in 11 years and first Masters victory since 2005. Tiger’s 15th major title moves him closer to Jack Nicklaus’s record 18 career wins.
