Tiger Woods Returns To Golf, Some Are Not Impressed

The golf world is a-buzzin' with the news that Tiger Woods will rejoin the sport after taking a leave due to a knee injury and birth of his new son. Examiner.com, however, thinks the news is so-so:

Sure, the confirmation of Tiger Woods’ return to competition next week dominated yesterday’s golf headlines...but it wasn’t the most significant development of the week.

Largely unnoticed Monday was the announcement in Hong Kong that the R&A, the Masters and the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation have joined forces to create the Asian Amateur Championship. The winner will earn a start in the following year’s Masters and the top two finishers will be exempt into International Final Qualifying for the British Open."

Frankly, before Tiger Woods I didn't give a rat's butt about golf and thought that Jack Nicklaus was great in "The Shining," so the news that he's coming back and making golf interesting again is much bigger than something that reads like the premise for Mark Burnett's new show.
