The more I read about his injuries, the more amazed I am that Tiger was able to walk 91 holes, let alone win the damn tournament. He's got a torn anterior cruciate ligament (a potential career-threatening injury in football) and a double stress fracture of the left tibia. He told his doctor, who advised him not to play that "I'm playing the U.S. Open, and I'm going to win." Unreal!
