Tiger Woods keeps win streak alive — going undefeated in 2008 still a possibility
Forget about the New England Patriots going 19-0. The story of 2008 may be Tiger Woods going undefeated for the entire season. Tiger Woods kept his win streak alive today, by sinking a 25 footer on the final hole to win by one stroke over Bart Bryant at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. The win means that Tiger has won every tournament this year he’s played in and has a 7-win streak going back to the end of last season.
I have been ridiculed for suggesting at the beginning of 2008 that Tiger Woods could run the table and go undefeated this year. To me, the biggest hurdle was the Accenture Match Play, which is always a crap shoot — but Tiger managed to escape elimination a couple times. But I still don’t know why some people thought my suggestion was ridiculous. I admit that the odds are against it, but the way Tiger Woods is playing, I think he has a very realistic chance to win every tournament. The guy never misses a cut, and, if he’s in contention, he usually wins. I would take Tiger against the field any day, especially now.
