It’s been a strange season for Tiger Woods, who’s occasionally shown fans the same game that made him one of golf’s greatest of all time.
More often than not, however, Woods has been just not quite all there, and his lack of success with the putter has been a big reason why.
On Sunday during the final round of the Quicken Loans National, Woods finally started to get some magic going with that ever-important stick, and fans went absolutely bonkers.

The birdie on No. 8 moved Woods to within four strokes of the lead. Earlier, he had also pulled off another miraculous shot that had his fans in awe.
"Anything on the green here would be really good."

Speaking of fans, there are quite a lot of them following Tiger Woods this weekend over on TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm.

You can’t tell me @TigerWoods won’t WIN again or WIN another Major. They more he plays. The more he is starting to look scary it’s not his drive. It’s always been about his putting. And right now. His confidence is growing. @PGATOUR
