Tiger Woods Comeback

Tiger Woods is making an urgent comeback again in the PGA Tour and he did it recently at the Valspar Championship. Tiger Woods has proved critics wrong by making this recent comeback due to being healthy of body, mind and spirit. After coming back from spinal surgery 11 months ago, Tiger Woods took part in the lead early in the final round in just his fourth start of the PGA Tour since being put on hold for a year. Even though his putter may have failed him at times, which made critics say that it was his downfall, he came back late with a birdie from 43 feet on the 71 st hole which left him one behind, but his 39 foot birdie chance forced a playoff on the 72 nd hole fell two feet short.

Texans Injury Bug

We wish him success in the next phase of his life.” Before the beginning of last season the Texans gave Fiedorowicz a three year, 22 million dollar contract that also added 10 million dollars guaranteed. The Houston Chronicle stated the Texans reworked Fiedorowicz’s contract when the news of his retirement came about. A

March Madness

Another year another March Madness as the NCAA tournament starts on March 15 th to begin the event waited for across the United States. The top number one seeds in the tournament are Virginia, Villanova, Kansas and Xavier with a high percentage of Virginia and Villanova facing in the finals. Many teams in the bracket, but only six games for the teams that advance on to the finals for the last remaining two. A lot of team’s means a chance for an upset with San Diego State ranked sixteenth versus Houston ranked sixth being the highest percentage being in that category. The other chance of an upset is Loyola Chicago ranked eleventh versus Miami ranked sixth being the other. So many things can happen during March Madness which makes it the most watched event during this month due to the unpredictability that can happen from a last second shot, free throw or defensive stop. An opinion of mine is Georgia State can make a Cinderella run how Davidson did in 2008 when Stephen Curry played
