Tiger Woods is reportedly out of the rehabilitation center in Arizona and has returned home to Orlando. Whether or not he is with his family is not known, but Tiger is apparently making the next step in his return to life on the PGA Tour.
Last week on The Back Nine we spoke with Jaime Diaz, Golf Digest Senior Writer, who arguably is as close to Tiger and his family as any journalist cover the world's top player over the last 20 years. If you haven't seen Jaime's articles on Tiger over the last several weeks, check out www.golfdigest.com and give them a read, you won't be disappointed.
Jaime has a much more positive outlook on the life of Tiger Woods post rehab. As a golf fan and someone who has enjoyed watching Woods chase down record after record, I hope Jaime is on target.
So many questions abound as to when will Tiger return? How will handle the harassment, which he is sure to get? How will Steve Williams, Tiger's Caddie, handle the heckling? I see it now, Steve Williams arrested for assault at a PGA Tour event after quieting a heckling fan. Be honest, you can see it happening too.
ESPN reported this morning that Tiger Woods is trying to resume a golf workout regime upon his return to Orlando. I guess that's progress as we know Woods won't make an appearance on the PGA Tour absent knowing he can win. Frankly, I want to see him win in his first tournament back. In winning, and winning quickly Tiger is giving himself the best chance possible to return to some state of normalcy.
