Tiger Returns To The Tour...Sponsors Rejoice...

And the world returns to its rightful axis and rotation...


He's coming back for the Accenture-Match Play Championships, and boy, did their ticket sales go through the roof on that one...


From the PGA Tour its ownself.

"We are delighted that Tiger is returning to competition and look forward to watching him compete next week," commissioner Tim Finchem said in a statement.

So, what does the inner circle think...?

"He's human," swing coach Hank Haney said. "He has played one tournament in 10 months. I would think he would be a little rusty, but I really don't know what to expect. Nothing with Tiger ever surprises me."

"He's working on the same stuff that he's always been working on, but he'll be able to do it with a strong leg now," Haney said. "It will be a little different in the finish because his knee doesn't give way."

Those of us at OSG HQ welcome the now-father of two back to the tour...
Let's go back to the 2008 US Open Saturday...
