Tiger's Tour - Will a Tiger again born ever ?

Tiger Woods at a event After Jackie Robinson from Brooklyn Dodgers the Golf club team Tiger Woods is the second African person to be believed the most influencing in the list of Blacks.
It must be noted that Golf is believed to be traditional sports for whites, building a way for a black in such a game is really very difficult. When just 31 Tiger Woods had added many achievements to his name, he won nearly 55 tournaments, among which 12 were the major tournaments. Till by this stage he was been able to make a money of $66 million.
After wining a low amateur status at the masters event Tiger Woods found himself injured at the wrist after which he felt to withdraw. And the U.S. open he first felt to win or make a way in 1995 ended for him. In 1996 with Jack Nicklaus advices he moved ahead. Here in the events he finished for the 82nd position when the event was held at Oakland Hills Country Club. The way he loosed here at this tournament gave him encouragement and in the later coming years he did not loosed even once for all the 39 next tournaments about to come.
It was the Masters tournament at the 1997 that the media attention moved towards him and he was a center of attraction at the next U.S. open. But unfortunately he was not been able to get a grip out there. The year 1998 also proved to be a disappointment for him. In the PGA Tour event he was among the top four while at the US open he was among the top 18. It was his year at the 1999 US event when he finished among the top three with a tie in his game.
During the 2000 US open event he won his credit for his trophy. Moreover he was just 24 years old when he captured his careers grand slam. In the year 2002 he won masters, US open and grand slam all three titles but lost the only British open. It was one among his greatest achievements of the year. Later in the year his game did not showed up in 2003 where he finished 20th at a tie. In 2004 he was 17th. In 2005 he was just behind Michael Campbell in the US open. Its believed to be the death of his father which did not let him win at the 2006 US open. At the 2007 he was at second position for a tie and a single step behind Angel Cabrera. This year 2008 he again won his third US open and one among the 14 major events he won.
Even been a black from a country of whites he has been so much challenging to the people all around the world. How to know about it that such a tiger who can catch the hearts of the people would ever born again. Or would such a personality will born again ever.
