Tiger Off to a Powerful Start in 2008

by Sandy Mitchell on January 28th, 2008

After a ten-week hiatus from competition and amidst a flurry of controversy stemming from the Golf Channel’s Kelly Tilghman’s stupid remark, Tiger Woods showed the world at Torrey Pines this week why he’s the best in the game. Woods easily won the Buick Invitational there for the 6th time (and 4th in a row) with a -19, 8 shots better than second place finisher, Ryuji Imada of Japan (who shot a very respectable - 2 on Sunday).

Perhaps the best quote of the weekend came from veteran PGA Tour member, Fred Couples, who (referring to the Tilghman bruhaha) said “Honestly … everyone needs to leave the guy alone. Every time he gets upset, he wins by 15 shots. We have to tout him, tell him how great he is, be enamored.” Freddie has a point.

Rookie Kevin Streelman, who ended the first round in second place, finished the tournament tied for 11th place.
