Tiger Woods is back, and the sports world is thrilled about it.
Woods took a three-stroke lead into the final day of the 2018 Tour Championship, and he would not be denied his first win since the 2013 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. It was his 80th career PGA Tour win.
He gave an emotional speech reacting to the win, shedding a few tears in doing so.
As Tiger holds back tears, "I just can't believe I pulled this off" 🙌

Sundays are usually dominated by NFL action, but not this week. Woods stole the show, and understandably so.
