Tiger Woods masters an improbable 15th major, and seemingly time itself Globe_Sports
DOUG MILLS/The New York Times News ServiceThe fifth green jacket Tiger Woods won on Sunday at the Masters was more about the past, better measured by a powerful celebration and enormous popularity than by any ripple effect it might have in golf.
Within two months, Woods qualified for the Tour Championship by winning twice in seven starts. He won the Tournament of Champions to start the next year. And then he demolished the field and Augusta National like no one had ever seen, making him the first man of colour in a green jacket.“Golf fans were all into him,” Finchem said. “But they hadn’t seen that much of him, except for winning tournaments.”It’s those 22 years between his first and latest major that make No.
Memories became real. The Sunday red shirt was brighter than ever. There was audible excitement in the press building, from a younger generation that had never seen him win a major, from an older generation that thought it might never happen again.And in some respects, that makes it even bigger.
