Tiger Woods’ hairline has made a glorious, triumphant comeback

Woods’ golf game isn’t the only thing that’s back, folks.

The 2018 Masters tournament gets underway Thursday from Augusta National, and all week before it begins, the hype is surrounding Tiger Woods.

Making his first trip to Augusta national since 2015, paired with his impressive outings in both the Valspar Championship and Arnold Palmer Invitational, Woods is back, and it’s a thing of beauty to see him at the Masters. Woods underwent a fourth back surgery last April, a spinal fusion, and he’s been playing some great golf ever since.

But his golf game isn’t the only thing making a comeback.

As far back as 2015, people began noticing Woods’ receding hairline. It was obvious, and paired with a breakup with Lindsay Vonn, a DUI, and poor outings on the course, it wasn’t exactly a pretty picture.

What was even sadder is that during his police booking video, he told the cops his hair was “brown and fading and … brown.” At least he was being honest! Look at how rough my man had it.

Even Scott Van Pelt zinged him for it on his show.

But folks, fast forward to 2018, and my man’s hairline HAS MADE A TRIUMPHANT COMEBACK!

LOOK AT THE GROWTH UP FRONT! LOOK AT IT!

No, it isn’t perfect, nor fully back at this point. But you have to tip your cap to him on this progress! What was once a confused patch of hair at the front is now a distinct, noticeable line up top.

Woods isn’t the only one who’s had a majestic return to hair fullness — former Florida State head coach and new Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher made one of his own:

Here was the situation for Florida State’s head coach in December 2014: stragglers awash on Hair Island with dwindling supplies.

Hope was scant. The tide rose. FSU fans complained every time Fisher didn’t wear a hat. Recruits could see his skull.

The Big Lead

Seven months later, Hair Island had bloomed into a booming Hair Peninsula.

Experts were calling it one of the greatest resurrections in environmental history, but they had no idea how lush the future was.

Dear Leader’s hair has always been this mighty and populous. A month after that, a little favorable lighting had Fisher looking like he had Hair Grand Theft Auto 5 Map on his head.

For the record, Woods lives in Florida, the same state Fisher was still in at the time of his miracle grow (yes, I’m using this as a verb and not endorsing any products). I’m just saying, there may be a good chance they both used the same hair plug guy. But I can dream!

Hopefully this isn’t the last we see if Woods’ hair coming back.
