Tiger Woods is ridiculous

It's really absurd. It's not enough that he's won 14 major tournaments, that he's won every major tournament that he has led or been tied for the lead going into the final round, that he's had dominating stretches of consecutive regular tournaments, etc, etc. Now, just for variety, he has knee surgery, doesn't play for two months, double-bogeys the first hole three times, birdies the final hole to extend the tournament - twice! - and wins the US Open in sudden death. I mean, congratulations and all that, but it's really a bit much.

No doubt, Tiger is in a world all his own. I bet he takes the next month off and makes a pretty darn good run at the British Open

I am still waiting for him to

* win 15 in a row
* win the grand slam.
* develop a game using the other hand, and using one hand, not at a novelty but for the situation where he is behind a tree or something (like that ever happens)
* Purposefully overshoot from the tee into the bunker but with so much backspin that the ball leaves the bunker and rolls on to the green.
* Skip a ball over the water, like one would skip a rock. Not as a novelty but as a means to go under something.
* shoot a hole in one during some sort of dramatic warfare (akin to the rocket launch in "Wings of Honemise")
