Tiger Woods is in no mood to let the trophy of Chevron World Challenge slip out of his showcase, especially when it can add some glitter to his winless season.
The 34-year-old is adamant with his plans and it is evident from his last two rounds, which turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Tiger smashed 65 in the first round on a loss of 1 hole and 66 in the second with perfect scorecard.
Woods holds a record of at least one PGA Tour title in every year ever since he turned professional in 1996. Although his winning streak has been cracked with the terrible start of 2010, but chances are that he will cap it with a title at 18-man invitational Chevron World Challenge.
It has been a turbulent season for the world number two, who lost all his titles as well his wife, owing to the case of infidelity. Despite of the heavy blow, the world’s richest athlete claims he has not lost his drives.
Tiger said, “My goal is to win every tournament I tee it up in and be prepared for every event. I love winning. That is just fun. Coming down the stretch on the back nine with a chance to win, I mean, that’s the rush and that’s the thrill of why my practice, and it’s why we train, why we hit all those balls tireless hours is to put ourselves in that one position. Whether you succeed or fail, it is about being there, and once you get a taste of that, you want to be there time and time again.”
Woods may not have won any event in the current year, but his play has come a long way since missing the cut at the Quail Hollow Championship and finishing second last at the Bridgestone Invitational. Moreover, he changed his swings thrice and hired the services of Sean Foley. By the end of the year, the veteran got the fruit of his hard work and finished fourth in the JB Were Masters, where he wrapped the last round with a 65.
After smashing a bogey free round on Friday in California Tiger told the press that he learnt a lot as a golfer and as a person. He further added that the year might have been painful, but it has been very successful as he taught him control and persistence.
