Tiger Woods completes greatest comeback in sports
Ben Hogan, Mario Lemieux, Clint Malarchuk and Monica Seles have all accomplished comebacks in their respective sports after experience personal tragedy and hardship.
However, none of them have reached the pinnacle in their return quite like Tiger Woods did this past Sunday at the Tour Championship at East Lake.

However, Woods silenced his critics and stunned the world with his impressive performance this past week against the best players in the world at the Tour Championship.
