Tiger Woods Might Be Getting That Fist-Pump Swag Back

Hide your kids, hide your wives, hide your fairways and your greens 'cause Tiger Woods' driver is gon' find you. Remarkably, his putter is the club that may be more accurate than ever. Woods has made 24 birdies and taken a career-low 74 putts through three rounds of the Cadillac Championship after getting extensive putting instructon from Steve Stricker. Here he is putting for his seventh birdie of the afternoon.

 
Five strokes back in fourth place, Stricker can sense the futility of chasing Woods.
"You know what kind of closer he is," Stricker said. "When he gets the lead in a golf tournament, it's tough. He doesn't let too many guys in usually when he gets the lead. We've all got our work cut out for us. We're going to have to go out and try to make birdies on a difficult golf course, which is hard to do." —ESPN

Woods is 39-2 when holding the lead heading into the final round of a tournament. Yeah, he's feeling it. The swag is back. The fist-pump is back.
