Video: Tiger provides plenty of entertainment at the AT&T National

July 02, 2012

Whether you believe Tiger Woods is "back" or not, his swagger certainly is.

Dressed in his trademark Sunday red shirt, Woods put away his third win of 2012 at the AT&T National with vintage play -- and plenty of showmanship. First, there was the ridiculous hook onto the 12th green in which his 9-iron ricocheted off a tree in front of him. Then, the birdie putt on No. 15, which seemed like it would miss until Tiger asked for it to turn left and it obeyed, causing him to point a finger to the sky in celebration. And finally on No. 18, when he struck a perfect 9-iron from 188 yards and immediately started walking after it.

Missed any of that yesterday? Simply want to see it again? Treat yourself with a look at the highlights:

Add it all up and despite staying at No. 4 in the Official World Golf Rankings, John Strege argues that Woods has reclaimed his stake to the title of the game's best player. He sure looked -- and acted -- like he was at Congressional.
