The Hero World Challenge is proving to be a stroke of good luck for Tiger.

To paraphrase the venerable LL Cool J: "Do not refer to this as anything remotely proximate to a comeback." But the very absent Tiger Woods is finally doing some Tiger things after a very long time.

After taking an extended leave to clean up his personal life, a 41-year-old Tiger Woods is out here, old-manning the Hero World Challenge like none other. He even nabbed an eagle on No. 9 in the second round at the Albany Golf Course in the Bahamas.

For a minute there, he held the lead all by his loneseome thanks to this Eagle. As of the writing of this, he's in a tight five-person tie for first at -8.
