Woods back to his best..(Golf)

Former world number one Tiger Woods sent out an
ominous warning to the golf world ahead of the US Open, declaring he
feels as good as he has done in years after winning the Memorial
Tournament in Ohio.


Woods produced some of the old magic to match Jack Nicklaus' career
tally of 73 PGA Tour wins with his fifth victory at the Memorial, his
five-under 67 giving him a two-stroke winning margin over Rory Sabbatini
and Andres Romero on nine under overall.

Woods looked like his old self as he produced a defining shot, and
celebration, at the 16th, holing out from off the green for birdie.

Flopping the ball out of a difficult lie onto the near edge of the
putting surface, Woods watched the ball roll dead weight into the right
edge of the hole.

His fist-pumping roar of delight rolled back the years, and was soon
followed by a calm raise of the club after a birdie putt on 18 which he
knew had taken him out of reach of the chasing Sabbatini.

"I hit the ball great today," Woods said afterwards. "That's what was
so exciting about today is I didn't really miss a golf shot.

"I hit the ball just as good as I have in years.

"That was fun when I needed it the most."
