[QUOTE="ChiefIllini, post: 1414515, member: 588522"] Whatever sport comeback story you side for, I think the thing Tigers got going for him his that he brought golf into the spotlight. Lebron, MJ, Peyton, Bonds, etc. etc. were all huge names in their respective sport. Tiger Woods might be the only golfer a very large amount of people know. His worth in percentage to golf far exceeds any other sports dependence on a player. The NBA, NFL, NHL, and MLB are bigger, but there are other stars in those worlds. Sure, DJ, Spieth, Rory, and a few others are good/great golfers, but they are as boring as watching paint dry, especially compared to Tiger. No way I watch that round yesterday if Tiger wasn't in it. Now, you add this 5 year drought, personal issues, injuries, etc. You've got a controversial figure, but you have a story to tell. That's why he'll get a lot of nods as the best comeback in sports history. [/QUOTE]
