One loss is all Tiger had ever suffered after leading a PGA Tour event after 54 holes. He had never lost a major championship after leading through 54 holes until Sunday. South Korean golfer Y.E. Yang did what we all thought was impossible. In the past it was Tiger that would rise to the occasion, but on Sunday it was Yang who erased a two-shot lead and then forged ahead with an amazing chip for eagle on the 14th hole. Yang looked relaxed while Tiger looked tense, missing several birdie opportunities. It was an unlikely reversal of roles on Sunday, but it was entertaining to watch Yang become the first Asian-born player to win a major championship. So, was the year a disappointment for Tiger Woods? I'm sure he's disappointed. He had gone four straight years with at least one major win. But remember that before the PGA Championship, Tiger had won five of the 12 tournaments he played after major knee surgery.
