Tiger Woods 3.0<\/p>\n<p>I first met Tiger when he was 14. Couldn&#8217;t believe my eyes. Tiger Woods &#8211; The Original. The &#8216;Chosen&#8217; One.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s nearly a dozen years since I had my &#8216;Power Dream&#8217; in early June 2000, then witness it unfold in person as \u00a0Tiger stunned the world with his historic victory at Pebble Beach. The Next Step in Golf. Tiger Woods 1.0. A joy it was to witness the &#8216;Tiger Slam&#8217;&#8230; the golf he played. Then came a new teacher. And after the requisite 2 year adjustment period required to throughly ingrain the new swing into his &#8216;Muscle Memory&#8217; as an unconscious automatic reflex action, Tiger raised his play to unprecedented heights. And then, his breathtaking second run.<\/p>\n<p>Although I&#8217;m virtually off the grid in rural China completing a book, I&#8217;ve been getting &#8216;flashes&#8217; for the past couple of months that Tiger has has Awakened. \u00a0Two weeks after this first &#8216;flash&#8217; came news of his record setting 62 at the Medalist. This followed by his play at the Fry&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I was greeted with news of the 67 he shot in the second round of the Australian Open (after an opening round 68) to claim the clubhouse lead. The signs couldn&#8217;t be clearer. And although I predicted in April after the final round of the Masters that Tiger would reclaim his throne in 2012 (in my article &#8216;Long Live the King&#8217;), this update is just to confirm what I foresaw and foresee. And what many hope for.<\/p>\n<p>The Power of 3. &#8216;The 3rd Time Pays for All&#8217;. And so&#8230;.buckle up. Here he comes. Better than ever. Tiger Woods 3.0.<\/p>\n<p>Tiger is entering his Prime. His greatest play and victories are yet to come. He&#8217;s saved the best for last.<\/p>\n<p>For all those that talked trash and kicked him while he was down&#8230;. payback is gonna be sweet.<\/p>\n<p>Tiger was and is &#8216;Chosen&#8217;. First time round he didn&#8217;t understand the inherent obligations and responsibilities that comes with. Now, he does. He&#8217;s\u00a0cleaned house &#8211; stripped away the unessentials. And now, with 2012 ahead, he&#8217;s making the Shift to higher levels. Ascension.<\/p>\n<p>This is the real name of the game, now.<\/p>\n<p>Tiger Woods 3.0<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; He&#8217;s Back!
