AUGUSTA, GA. -- Sports often produce some of the best underdog stories. We gravitate to them with ease and cherish them while they last. But the not-so-secret truth about it all is that nothing beats the innate desire to watch and witness greatness.
The nature of golf's individuality facilitates this narrative. One player is responsible for every shot and the weight of every miss and make falls on his or her shoulders. This only serves to enhance the peaks and the valleys the best golfers in the world will inevitably go through. But once in a while, a figure arrives who seems to transcend the see-saw nature of sports and produce a kind of dominance that leaves fans and peers in awe.
