Tiger Woods was already the greatest. This is just icing on the cake.

This is the Morning Win. Nate Scott is filling in for Andy Nesbitt for a few weeks.

Tiger Woods won the Zozo Championship in Japan to kick off this year's PGA Tour season, his 82nd career PGA Tour win. The victory ties him with Sam Snead for the most PGA Tour wins of all time.

Flash back a few years ago, and this is incomprehensible. In 2015, Woods had back surgery. In 2016, Woods again had major back surgery. He tried to come back in 2017, and it was painful to watch. He was done. Three years of pain, three years of trying to play through it. Back then, watching him fight through tournaments in 2017, I figured he'd be retired from the game of golf by the end of the year. He was done.

And that would have been fine! He was already the greatest of all time for me, a man who had singlehandedly dominated the game for two decades. He was the hero to multiple generations of fans. He had made golf cool again.

The majors, the wins, the way he'd done it, the competition he'd left in the dust, I already had him easily pegged as the greatest golfer to ever play the game, even if he never played another round.

And then last year, miraculously, he started looking like himself again. The back loosened up, and then the swing loosened up. He started climbing up leaderboards, and then: It happened. He won the Masters.

Now, he's coming hot into this year, winning his first tournament, gaming the course and holding off a late charge from Hideki Matsuyama. He's 43 years old and looking like he's going to compete all year. He looks confident. The swing looks good. He's not the dominant physical force he once was, but it doesn't matter. He's still the greatest competitor the game has ever seen, and now he's got the experience to see out a tournament.

We weren't supposed to get this. He was supposed to be done. This is icing on the cake. Make sure you enjoy it.

Sunday's Big Winner: The Nats fan who refused to drop his beer and got rocked by a home run

Yeah, so a Nationals fan had a home run coming right at him, and he was holding two beers, and instead of dropping the beers, or getting out of the way, he just put his chest out and took the ball right off it. It was heroic. Beer companies, give him beer.
