Tiger Woods offers renewed hope in one three-second clip, maybe most of all for himself

The best to ever do it might once again be able to do it at the highest level
Nearly 300 days elapsed between the moment Tiger Woods rolled his SUV down a ravine in California back in February and the moment he posted a video of himself swinging a golf club just before Thanksgiving. On Sunday, all it took were three seconds to reset the way we thought about the 23 million seconds between those two dates.
Tiger disrupted the golf world — which is not something he's unfamiliar with doing — with a three-second clip of him flushing a wedge on a driving range, perhaps in his own backyard, somewhere in Florida. The only noise was the flushing sound of club, ball and turf colliding in a way that is unique in the history of humans swinging golf clubs to this one man.
It's a noise that is so foreign to normal humans, even if the sound of hope which will reverberate up and down the golf world for weeks (or months) is not one with which we're unfamiliar.
