Column: Woods is back, but maybe not the guy on TV

Nassau, Bahamas • Tiger Woods couldn't have scored more points with his two children than when he took them to Miami this summer to watch Barcelona in a friendly, and then arranged for them to meet Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in the locker room.

He described it as a surreal moment to watch his kids in awe of their soccer heroes, especially Messi, their favorite. It was a reminder of his own place in the world of sport when he said to daughter Sam, "Isn't it neat to meet a living legend?"

He might as well add PGA champion Justin Thomas, Hideki Matsuyama and Daniel Berger to that list.
