W hile the gossip lines on the Internet, the tabloids in print and on TV and the sports punditry will be ablaze for days, overall, it’s good to hear that Tiger Woods plans to get back to letting his clubs do the talking.Woods announced earlier this week he is ready to start golfing publicly again, planning his return in Augusta, Ga., at the Masters, April 8-11.

It’s a wonderful thing for the world of sports, regardless of the King of Golf’s personal, sexual and marital troubles. When Woods steps out on a golf course, there is a magical transformation, as if space and time and the rules of physics no longer apply. The effect is magnified in the Masters.

Shots can go past the hole and come back to drop in. Shots land on the greens where mere mortals have over- or undershot their targets. When Woods is on his game at Augusta National, it’s as if there’s a closet somewhere of tailor-made green jackets just waiting for him. And sports fans, even those only casually acquainted with professional golf, are stunned, drawn to watch. Tiger has turned the Masters into golf’s Indy 500, Super Bowl and World Series, a favorite for fans and casual observers.
