Tiger Woods is having quite a comeback season.
After losing years of competition to ongoing injuries, Woods has been on something of a tear this year. While he has yet to score his first victory back on the Tour, he has magnificently outperformed expectations, and brought plenty of his Tiger magic back to the sport.
His skills were on display again on Friday, during the second round of the Memorial Tournament. Woods was already having a solid round after a middling first day of the tournament. But on the par-5 No. 11, Woods holed out an eagle that sent the crowd into absolute hysterics. It was a throwback moment to the times when Tiger could take over an entire course with the enormity of his presence.
You can watch the fantastic shot below.
The eagle brought Woods to five-under on the tournament, just five strokes off the lead, just as play was suspended due to weather concerns.
