Tiger Burning Brighter

Five in a row. To call it awe-inspiring doesn't really do it justice. Just read this excerpt from Michael Bamberger, over at SI.Com.

He won the British Open, then the Buick Open, then the PGA Championship, then the World Series of Golf at Firestone, flew all night to play two practice rounds at the K-Club outside Dublin, woke up at 5 a.m. Wednesday to fly to Boston for the tournament for which he is the unofficial host, and won that. He said he was looking forward to going home and getting some sleep. And then hitting the range and getting better.

"You can always get better," he said in the dying light of Labor Day. A new school year was about to begin. "You're always learning in this game."

You can always get better. That may help explain why he's the best.
