'Tiger Woods backed into another bit of Masters history by making his 23rd consecutive cut Saturday, tying Gary Player and Fred Couples for the record. But Woods has no chance of winning a sixth green jacket,' writes Paul Newberry.
He’s no longer a factor at the top of the leader board.Instead, the golfer who provided some of the game’s most electrifying moments can be found plodding along at the cut line, his primary goal simply to make it to the weekend.
How much longer will that be worth it to a guy who has claimed 15 major championships — five of them at this place? But it’s a tenuous line between those turn-back-the-clock moments and essentially being MJ in a Wizards uniform.It’s hard to envision his battered body — after all the surgeries and a devastating car wreck that nearly cost him his right leg — feeling any better than it does now.Woods’ window to win a sixth Masters title or a 16th major championship surely has closed. It might be a major letdown to see him scuffling around the course, but that is his new reality.
Woods took another go of it at the PGA Championship, only to withdraw before the final round after shooting 79 on Saturday.
