The 2011 Masters Showed Us the State of Tiger Woods' Game

Tiger Woods finished four shots out of the lead, and all the credit in the world goes to Charl Swartzel for his amazing run on the last four holes to claim the Masters title.

Still, the drama for the first three hours of Sunday’s final round came from the man always dressed in red in the final round, the man who was hunting his fifth Green Jacket like, well, a Tiger on the hunt.

In the end, he came up short. But he also finished strong enough to say that he has taken a big step forward with his new swing. Teacher Sean Foley has been working hard on getting Tiger’s arms and body in sync to lose the “high right” fade.

At times, it returned, but on Sunday we saw Tiger nearly at his best. Considering how far back he had to come, his chances were difficult at best. But his effort had us glued to the screen as he made his ascent.

He came up short, so there are some things to work on. There’s also an awful lot to like.
