Tiger Woods teased them for a while, then he did what he does best. Turning a one-shot lead on the 10th hole into a five-shot runaway win, Woods overpowered the Old Course at St. Andrews as only he can.
That slamming sound you hear is the window of opportunity closing for the rest of the world's top golfers, says Jim Litke. With his swing changes in place, Tiger Woods looks like he's again well on his way to dominating the majors.
A good week for Boom-Boom could have been a whole lot better. Plus, Nick Faldo gives himself a great birthday present, Tiger Woods overcomes an equipment malfunction, low amateur Lloyd Saltman confirms his future, and more.
Colin Montgomerie couldn't reel Tiger Woods in, but his second-place finish marked his best result in a major in eight years. And, he said, it showed that he is well on his way back after a prolonged slump and painful divorce.
