Tiger Woods was ready for another comeback. It ended in another crash

For years after Tiger Woods exploded into the sporting consciousness, he was idolized for one thing: Winning. Glorious, emphatic winning.

It was a 12-stroke win in 1997 at the Masters that announced his arrival as a phenomenon unlike anyone golf had seen before. It was the legendary 2008 US Open when he fought through a broken leg to win a dramatic tournament that seemed to prove him immune to vulnerability. All through the years in between, his willful yet easy-looking dominance carried his game to new heights of public enthusiasm, the sight of a charming, unmatchable demigod inspiring millions of ordinary Americans to hit the links.

He was too human to be true.

Then came a 2:30 a.m. car crash in November 2009 and every bit of that fell apart after lurid tales of his infidelity became public, ending in a high-profile divorce. These stories, in at least one case suppressed by a non-disclosure agreement, eroded his reputation as they trickled out over years, undermining his dramatic 2010 public apology. Since that moment, Woods has either been crashing out or coming back.

Now, yet another comeback has ended in yet another crash. Another photo of a blurry-eyed Woods staring forlornly at a jail camera for a mugshot, a look on his face that seems to reflect what the rest of us are thinking: How did we get here again? To read more go to the link below:
