4. His Rival
Not Himself: Nope, not Phil. It's Padraig Harrington, who has won three
of the last six majors (to Tiger's two) by perfecting his
Sunday impression of Woods. After turning in Tiger-like
performances in July and August, and having twice
beaten the great one eye-to-eye, PH won't stop making
game-changing putts just because TW is back.
His Old Self: It's one thing for Harrington to shoot 66-66 at the PGA to
nip Sergio at the finish line of a major, but the next time
anyone does that to Woods will be the first. Sure,
Paddy's beaten Tiger twice at the Dunlop Phoenix (2006,
in Japan) and the unofficial Target World Challenge (2002).
What's next, beating Woods at Golden Tee?
