Open Golf Contenders 2012 - Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods is an interesting one this year as he hopes to return from injury in time to head to Sandwich and contest the tournament. Woods is of course a legend of the game but he has slipped out of the top ten in the world rankings and has not won a Major Championship since the US Open in 2008. Woods has not been able to hit top form for some time now, he has struggled off the tee but if it all comes together he will be the man to beat at Royal St Georges as he goes for a fourth Claret Jug.

Tiger is one of those very rare sportsmen who has been utterly dominant in his sport. There is simply no other golfer that can in any way match his ability. He had been the world number one ranked golfer for years and prior to his injury and dip in form a while back he was by far the best player in the world and regularly ripped up fields.

It is worth noting some of the Tiger Woods success story; he has won a total of 65 tournaments already and he is only 35 years old. 14 of those tournaments have been Majors, he has three wins at the British Open, three wins at the US Open, four wins at the US Masters and four also at the USPGA Championship. .
