Tiger Woods to play Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill tournament
Tiger Woods will play in the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Orlando, Fla., next week, according to tigerwoods.com. No surprises here. Woods is the defending champion and it's a home game. (Woods lives in Orlando.) Plus, no way Woods disrespects Arnie by bypassing his tournament, especially after playing in the goofy Tavistock Cup earlier this week. Bay Hill always gets one of the year's best fields--despite its average $6 million purse--because even Tour pros must pay their respects to the King.
Expect Woods to be the favorite as well. Tiger has won this tournament five times, including four straight from 2000-2003. He owns Bay Hill as much as any course except for maybe Torrey Pines, and we all know what he did there last year. It will also be the last time we'll see Woods before the Masters since he's more likely to wear Reeboks to a golf lesson with Jessica Simpson than he is to show up at the Shell Houston Open.

Phil,
Tiger Woods + Fail ?
Can you break 100 on a muni track? Because if not that would be a failure.
