Can Tiger Woods return to golf glory by winning his third consecutive British Open title at St. Andrews?
The storyline and others have begun playing out and will conclude Sunday evening when the British Open finishes at St. Andrews, the home of golf in Fife, Scotland.
Attention is also being paid to other storylines: Is Ian Poulter poised to earn his first major title? What about Lee Westwood or Ernie Els earning the crown of the sport's oldest major championship? Will Tom Watson or Nick Faldo come from yesterday for one more hurrah?
Tiger Woods of the U.S. gestures to the crowd after sinking a birdie putt on the fifth hole during the third round of the U.S. Open Golf Championship in Pebble Beach, California, June 19, 2010.
The par 73, 6638 yard Old Course draws all the world's best for a shot at golf immortality. This will be the 28th Open Championship held at the Old Course at St. Andrews, the most by any venue for any major (except the Masters) and while the range of opinions about the course vary, what is commonly shared is the view that winning the Open at St. Andrews is just about the biggest honor one can score playing the game at the highest level. This sentiment has been expressed by Jack Nicklaus who has achieved just about every honor the sport can offer.
Woods has garnered two 4th place results in this year's first two majors, but he has now gone winless in six straight majors, the third-longest stretch in his pro career. That could very well end here as it would be unsurprising that he lifts the Claret Jug Sunday with yet another St. Andrews Open victory.
