Tiger Woods may have 14 major championship and 71 PGA Tour wins, but for a split second on Saturday he turned into a weekend hacker on the 15th hole at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. We've see some questionable shots from Tiger over the last couple of years, but there's no doubting this is the worst of ... well, maybe ever. Just take a look at the shot. If there's a term for something worse than a pull-hook, this would be the shot you'd use to define it. Woods not only flew the ball into someone's backyard, he tore up a huge piece of Bay Hill real estate in the process. NBC's crew noted after Woods hit the shot out of bounds that someone yelled in the back of his swing. That may be a problem for the average hack, but I find it hard to believe Tiger would hit a shot like that -- even if the guy yelling was right next to him. Woods went on to double-bogey the hole. As bad as things looked for Woods on this particular hole, he still managed to grab a one-shot lead going into the final round, where he'll be going for his first win in more than two years.
