Tiger's return imminent, I believe

I said it before and I'll say it again: I expect Tiger Woods to return before the Masters. If he is anything, Tiger Woods is a golfer. And if his marriage is in fact irreconcilable and his family has broken up, what other purpose does he have right now? Many of Woods' sponsors have jumped ship since the reports of his infidelity have surfaced, and I think it has as much to do with him not playing golf as the indiscretions. The majors still mean a lot to Woods, and I have a hard time believing his self-imposed hiatus from the game will last past Augusta in early April. You have to figure he'll come back for one tournament before the Masters, and I believe it will be at one of two events that are both close to his Orlando-area home. Woods dominates most tournaments he's played, but no more so than World Golf Championship events and the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. He's won the WGC CA Championship six times, including five of the past eight, including 2007 when it moved to its current home of Doral in Miami. That event is four weeks before the Masters. He won Arnie's tournament last year for the sixth time, and that is two weeks before the Masters.
As Terrell Owens once said, get the popcorn ready, Tiger's return is upcoming.
