Just when you thought he was out, he pulled you back in.
Tiger Woods very nearly pulled off the impossible Sunday after starting the final round 7 shots back. He stormed up the front nine in electrifying fashion but couldn't follow through on the back nine.
Woods finished with a final-round 67, 5 under for the day and 10 under for the tournament.
Despite a brief stint as the leader in the clubhouse, he continued his string of close-but-not-quite finishes at the Masters. Since his last green jacket in 2005, Woods has finished tied for third, tied for second, second, tied for sixth, tied for fourth and — on Sunday — tied for fourth.
"I got off to a nice start there and posted 31," Woods said, "and then on the back nine, I could have capitalized some more."
But the chances to go even lower kept slipping away. On No. 12, he lipped out a short putt for par and dropped a stroke. On 13, a hole he birdied in the first three rounds and on which he is 41 under in his career, he took par. A makeable eagle putt on 15 slipped past and he settled for birdie.
Eventual champion Charl Schwartzel played the final four holes in 4 under on Sunday. Woods played the same holes at even par. Schwartzel defeated Woods by 4 strokes.
No repeat for Mickelson • Phil Mickelson entered this year's Masters looking to become the fourth player to win the tournament in consecutive years.
Instead, he struggled throughout the week and finished well back in the pack at 1-under-par 287, tied for 27th. Mickelson never really got going throughout the week, shooting rounds of 70-72-71-74.
Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo and Woods remain the only back-to-back winners in Masters history.
"I love these greens, I usually putt them very well, but I struggled this week," Mickelson said.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie • The Australians were headed for a very g'day at the Masters. The leaderboard was filled with guys from Down Under. When Adam Scott rolled in a short birdie putt at the 16th hole, he had the lead all to himself. Jason Day and Geoff Ogilvy were right in the mix, too.
By sheer numbers, the golfing-mad country seemed poised to celebrate the only major championship its never won.
Sorry, mate. The Aussies will have to wait a little longer.
"It's just disappointing that I didn't win when I held the lead with a few holes to go," Scott, 30, said, looking down and struggling to get the words out. "I'm usually a pretty good closer. I didn't do a bad job today, but Charl was better."
Masters officials apologize to female reporter • Masters officials have apologized to sports columnist Tara Sullivan of The Bergen (N.J.) Record after she was denied entry to a locker room for a post-tournament interview.
Augusta National spokesman Steve Ethun says a security guard acted improperly in stopping Sullivan, since club policy is to provide equal access to reporters. Several female reporters confirmed they had made numerous trips to the locker room for interviews in the past.
Yesterday, the media word was abuzz regarding Tiger Woods’ rare photograph. It was a perfect moment, Woods fired his golf ball towards the camera and the guy just took the photograph, right before the ball hit the lens.
However, there is also another cheeky fella, who shot to fame in an unusual manner. People call him the “Cigar Guy” and you can spot him on the right side of that Tiger Woods photo. He is the guy, partially smiling, with probably a turban on his head. Believe me, the Cigar Guy is considered to be a photo phenomenon on the web. Probably he is more famous that Tiger Woods in that specific pic.
The Cigar Guy was also verified by professionals. He isn’t photoshopped; it’s just that his appearance looks so unusual. The goofy character instantly replaced the position of Sad Keanu meme as the most favorite stuff on the internet.
Perhaps, it is the appearance of the Cigar Guy, which has made the Ryder Cup photograph, something so remarkable and famous. People will definitely remember this person for years to come. Already, some folks have photoshopped and pasted him in their family albums.

Tiger Woods officially returns to golf today, after a whirlwind week of press conferences, new ads with sponsors and yet another woman added to his long list of alleged mistresses.
Yesterday, the National Enquirer reported that during his years of romps with countless paramours, he even bedded his 22-year-old neighbor, whom he had known since her teenage years.
Raychel Coudriet, who first met Woods at 14, was reportedly “smitten” by the golfer and eventually had a one-night stand with him on his office couch.
The supermarket tabloid claimed the sexual encounter left Coudriet "shaken and humiliated" when it took place last year on a couch in his office just a mile from his Florida home.
Coudriet went into a rage when it was revealed over the past few months that Woods bedded other women, the newspaper reported.
Furious, she cornered Tiger last month while she was home for spring break.
"I feel extremely violated by what you did to me!" Coudriet, a college student, reportedly told Woods.
"Sorry about that," responded Tiger, who recently attended a sex rehab clinic in an effort to mend his marriage.
Meanwhile, on the eve of his return to the Masters, Nike debuted a new Woods commercial that many are calling nothing short of creepy.
The 30-second ad features a mute Woods listening to his dead father’s voice chastising him from beyond the grave. Earl Woods, who died in 2006, tells Woods, “Tiger, I am more prone to be inquisitive. I want to find out what your thinking was; I want to find out what your feelings are.”
Later, he ask him, “and did you learn anything,” as Woods is seen on the verge of tears. The ad concludes with the Nike sign.
Nike was one of the few sponsors who stayed with Woods after his sex scandal that began last year during Thanksgiving weekend. Woods lost $35 million worth of endorsements after he was linked to more than a dozen different women and forced to publicly apologize for his affairs.
Since then, he has attended sex rehab and is working on repairing his public image, as well as his marriage to Elin Nordegren.

Los Angeles: Howard Stern Tiger Woods beauty pageant: HLaura Donna Tiger Woods. Jamie Jungers Tiger Woods is a hot selling item. He will always remain in the news when he is not seen or heard. Speculations will continue to mount over whatever he does, or doesn’t.
So ever since that small and insignificant accident close to his palatial home a couple of months he is under a continuous attack of the media, sportspersons and all else.
He is sort of a punching bag and whoever wants to say anything about him, he writes it with so much authority that it feels like he is the first person in the chain to write about him.
Though this man or woman might have never ever shook Tiger Woods hands nor even might have seen in person.
I was appalled to hear the reports of Tiger Woods Mistress beauty show where women who had illegitimate sexual relationship with him and slept with him illegally would walk the ramp.

An update in the Tiger Woods ambulance to hospital story: the 911 call that one Fire Department spokesperson told TMZ.com came from Woods home and then backed off on the report, then another source claimed came from another residence in the area is confirmed to have come from Tiger Woods home.
UPDATE: WESH Orlando TV newscast video
And while that was going on, Jaimie Grubbs, another alleged mistress of Tiger Woods, is revealing just how much she hates men. According to Radar Online.com, Grubbs said that "boys" were "like toys" to her.
Jaimie Grubbs is not showing a good side of herself and the media's not helping her cover it up. The public news is that she worked or works in a medical marijuana store and was arrested for shop lifting. But what's more terrible is that Jaimie Grubbs opens up and first allegedly sells a voicemail of a person said to be Woods to US Weekly for $150,000, then uses an affair that's obviously contributing to the emotional harm of the Woods family to develop her own fame.

Tiger Woods’ wife, Elin Woods, has reportedly moved out of the couple’s Florida home and is living with friends nearby, according to Radar Online.
But good Woods source explained it to me today, ‘‘Elin has been taking a bit of a break, but Tiger and his team are still hopeful she won’t leave permanently.”
Meanwhile, even though Woods’ lifelong best pal Bryon Bell and his fiancee still want the scandal-plagued golfer to be best man for their South Carolina wedding next weekend, I’m hearing Woods is hesitant — worried the couple’s big day will be overshadowed by the media maelstrom that you know will swarm all over that ceremony.

Tiger Woods was seen as an "All American," clean-cut, superstar golfer with a beautiful wife and two adorable children—until last week, that is…
On Nov. 27, Woods had a minor fender bender with a fire hydrant and a tree, which led to a flurry of rumors that the crash resulted from an argument the golfer and his wife, Elin Nordegren, had over another woman.
The first woman named as a "Woods' woman" was forced into the spotlight by a National Enquirer probe, which claims Rachel Uchitel, a 34-year-old VIP manager, had met Woods for romantic trysts in various parts of the world. She adamantly denied those allegations; however, it was reported she later recanted, and admitted to being intimate with the athlete.
Jamie Grubbs, of ‘Tool Academy’ fame, came forward claiming she and Woods were an item. She also provided a voicemail she alleges Woods left for her.
Yet another woman, Kalika Moquin, is remaining hush hush about her alleged involvement with Woods and told Life & Style magazine, “It’s not appropriate for me to comment one way or the other.”
Finally, on Saturday another woman hit the spotlight telling a British newspaper she and Woods had a two year love affair. Jamie Jungers is a cocktail waitress who claims to have met the golfer at a Las Vegas night club.

There's no telling whether more women will be revealed to have been involved with the married golfing great, however, only time will tell.

The Tiger Woods scandal doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon, but rather is growing.
It began with an accident outside of Woods' home, then came the rumors of affairs.
Woods hasn't acknowledged any specific relationships but said on his website that he hasn't been true to his values.
The apology came after a Los Angeles cocktail waitress released a voice-mail, reportedly from Woods.
On Thursday, Newschannel 3 spoke to people in West Michigan to get their reaction to the scandal. It certainly has people talking, and the most common reaction seems to be one of disappointment.
Inside Year Round Golf in Schoolcraft, owner Dieter Valk says he's a big fan, but these days, that comes with some reservations.
“I'm a big Tiger fan,” said Valk. “Obviously I'm also very, very disappointed in his actions.”
Woods' self-described 'transgressions' are now very much under the world's curious eye.
“He is in the limelight all the time, so I think it is part of our business,” said Valk, “he put himself where he is with the people that support him.”
Golfer Marty Sepanik said he expected better from Woods.
“I thought he was a mature individual,” said Sepanik. “What kind of leadership role does he play?”
Mike Valk isn't a huge fan of Woods, but his twelve-year-old son is.
“He asked questions and it's a tough thing to answer,” said Valk. “I let him know Tiger made a mistake.”
But not everyone agrees that mistake needs to be played out in public.
“It's his personal business, it's his wife's business to handle,” said Melisa Beeson. “I really don't think we should be paying attention to him.”
“Famous people's business is always on the news,” said Anthony Phillips, “but I don't think it's any of our business.”
People also had mixed reactions as to whether the scandal will effect Woods' golf game. Some expect it to be a distraction, while other said it could push him to be even better on the course.
Despite his problems, corporate sponsors are standing by Woods. The golfer has sponsorship deals that are worth a hundred million dollars annually. His largest sponsors include Nike and Gatorade, who say their relationship with Woods has not changed, and that they support him and his family.

Tiger Woods is going to be issued a traffic ticket for his single-car crash on Friday.
CNN.com reports that the golfer is being charged with careless driving, and he’ll be orded to pay $164 in fines. He’ll also get four points on his license for the moving violation. The charges stem from his SUV collision early Friday when he struck a fire hydrant and then a neighbor’s tree while pulling out of his driveway.
Tiger and his wife Elin Nordegren, who reportedly pulled him from the vechile after the crash, have repeatedly declined to speak to the Florida Highway Patrol since the accident. However, authorities said that he has provided them with his driver’s license, registration and insurance information, thus meeting all requirements for vehicular accidents.
"Mr. Woods' status in no way impacted our investigation or conclusion. The investigation has determined that Mr. Woods is at fault in the crash,” said. Maj. Cindy Williams of the FHP told CNN. "With the issuance of this citation, the Florida Highway Patrol has completed its investigation into this matter."
Cops don’t have enough additional information to request a medical investigation into the matter.
And as Tiger’s alleged mistress Rachel Uchitel continues deny any extramarital relationship with the golfer, another woman has come forward to confess her affair with him.
Jamie Grubbs, who some may recognize from the first season of “Tool Academy,” claims she and Tiger were sleeping together since April 2007, E! Online reports. And, apparently, she’s got voicemails and more than 300 text messages as evidence of their extended tryst, include some 20 sessions in bed.

"The situation is my fault," said Tiger Woods in a statement he made after his car accident outside his Florida home. But what "situation" is Tiger referring to? Is he referring to his reupted mistress and former New York night club hostess Rachel Uchitel? According to Rachel she denies ever having an affair with Woods, calling the rumors "ridiculous." Well according to police reports Woods was found unconscious on the ground next to his car, his wife said she used one of Tiger Woods golf clubs to break the back window to get him out of the car. The golfer has lacerations on his face, but from what? Tabloids are claiming that this accident was the result of a domestic feud between Tiger Woods and his wife Elin Nordegren because of an alleged affair with Rachel Uchitel.
Rachel Uchitel, Tiger Woods rumored mistress, hired an attorney immediately after tabloids reported the affair. She claims that Woods has been to the night club and she has personally escorted him and his crew in and out as part of her job handling VIP services. Do those VIP services include happier endings? Uchitel states "Tiger and I are not friends. That is a whole different ballgame. I've only met him twice....I do not have sex with celebrities, and I have not had an affair with Tiger Woods." Well she sure is denying this pretty hard.
It is a little suspicious that Tiger Woods has not spoken to police in reference to his Friday morning car crash. He was injured and did not play in yesterdays golf tournament he was scheduled to host, the 2009 Chevron World Challenge. Tiger Woods Foundation president and CEO made a statement of support saying, "We support Tiger's decision and are confident the strong field and excellent course will provide and exciting week of competition at the Chevron World Challenge." Woods is not participating in any more tournaments of 2009 but plans to return in 2010. Well that is only a month away so not a huge loss.
I don't know if anyone will ever know what really happened Friday morning. Tiger Woods has always kept his private life well, private. He is extremely disciplined and will hold his tongue for a long time. Also if Rachel Uchitel keeps denying, denying, denying than no one will ever know the truth. I guess mums the word.

Rachel Uchitel, the woman branded as mistress to Tiger Woods by the National Enquirer, sets the record straight to Usmagazine.com: "I did not have an affair with Tiger Woods." She adds: "I met him twice and have not heard from him since."
Woods suffered facial lacerations in a car accident outside his Florida home at around 2:25 am Friday -- and some reports suggest that he and wife Elin Nordegren had been arguing about the infidelity headlines, potentially leading to his accident.

Uchitel spoke to Usmagazine.com minutes after Woods' crash was reported. She wished the golfer well, but added "this has nothing to do with me. I don't understand why anyone would think this is anything to do with me."
In a conversation days before Woods' crash, Uchitel insisted her innocence to Us. "I have not had an affair with him. I understand that there's rumors all over because everybody's talking about it. But I'm telling you, people say rumors about me all the time. People will say a ton of things about me. I did not have an affair with Tiger Woods. The things that were said from the source in the Enquirer are in fact, not true.

She also notes that she offered to take a polygraph for the Enquirer to prove herself, "and they refused it," she says. "They told me it was too late and the story was running anyway."
After being treated for his minor injuries at Health Central Hospital in Ococee, Fla., Woods was released Friday. Although officials are investigating the crash, it does not appear to be alcohol related.

In February, Woods and wife Elin welcomed their second child, a boy, Charlie. Their first child, Sam Alexis, was born in 2007.

Uchitel was not contacted by Woods' camp following Friday's incident. "But why would I?" she asked Us.
