No, not that Tiger Woods dropped two eagles on the back nine to take the U.S. Open lead at -3, but that Jeff Falconio finally admitted that maybe, just maybe, Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer of all time.
Watching him over the last two days, from his front nine 30 on Friday to his insanely difficult 35-foot miracle putt on 18 today, was akin to watching Jordan dominate the "flu game" or Kirk Gibson hobble around the bases against Oakland.
This is, in short, the start of one of the greatest comebacks from injury in the history of sports, and if he completes it tomorrow there won't be any doubt: he's the greatest of all time. What do you think, Falcon?
