Tiger's year to win a Grand Slam?

Tiger Woods has always been a confident player but he is super smart when it comes to sending a message and putting more fear into his fellow PGA players.

His quote below that he could possibly win all 4 Golf Majors in 2008 was a great first move. As we all know, it is only possible for him to do it and I believe he will one day.

I am looking forward to seeing one of the greatest athletes of any generation compete this year. It is always a treat!

This scenic golf course set on the cliffs above Black’s Beach, believed to be the only municipally approved nude beach this side of the French Riviera, takes on added significance because it is also the site of the United States Open in June. Coming off a seven-victory year, Woods recently wrote on his Web site that he believed sweeping the four major championships during the 2008 season was “easily within reason,” serving notice to his already beleaguered Tour colleagues that he has penciled in another undoable feat on his to-do list under “Win Grand Slam.”

“Well, he’s obviously a very confident player, and he should be,” Mickelson said. “He’s won countless events and double-digit majors — how many is it? — 13, there you go. So he should be confident.”

“I’m certainly stronger,” Woods said. “I can’t run five-minute miles like I could in high school, but everything feels pretty good. It’s just a matter of getting out here and competing again. I’ve been playing and practicing to get my speed back and just really look forward to teeing it up. Playing money games back home isn’t quite the same as being out here with the best players in the world".
