Tiger's the Master
Once again, the Masters Tournament was the Tiger Wood's show. No matter how well any other golfer plays, the Tiger's always there to track 'em down, rip 'em up and spit 'em out.
Tiger now holds all four major golf titles - the Masters, the US Open, the British Open and the PGA Championship. If a player wins all four titles in the same year, it is called a Grand Slam. Tiger has now won six major titles.
David Duvall was tied with Tiger after 15 holes on Sunday's final round. But he missed birdie putts on the 17th and 18th holes and ended up in second place.
The Masters is played in Augusta, Georgia. There are no tigers living in the wild in Georgia. The state's animal is actually the right whale - it can grow up to 50 feet long.
For being the Masters champion, Tiger not only gets a whole lotta cash - he also gets a green jacket, which is awarded to the winner each year. But winners aren't allowed to actually wear the jacket out anywhere, so it just stays hanging up in a closet.
The 2001 US Open and the 2001 PGA Championship will also be held in Georgia. The 2001 British Open is being held in Scotland.
Real tigers don't have opposable thumbs - so they can't actually hold golf clubs.
