Tiger Woods finds a new anchor


After a 2-year journey, having lost his life Anchor (his father), Tiger Woods renews with victory at the Chevron Challenge benefiting his foundation in Southern California. This victory comforts the theory that no matter how low the lows, there is always a way to find a new anchor (or a modified one) and relaunch from there. For Tiger it was his spirituality, with a newfound anchor in his buddhist beliefs. Congrats Tiger. You are an inspiration.
