Tiger Woods' year was supposed to be more interesting than a lot of others he has had because he came back from knee surgery and won a whole bunch of tournaments but somehow failed to win a major. It was supposed to be interesting and compelling because he had the lead on Y.E. Yang, a club-fighter compared to Woods, a golf "Rocky" compared to Woods, in the year's last major, the PGA, and then couldn't close the deal and watched Yang beat him and beat him bad down the stretch.
