Back but not quite "Back"

Should we really expect Tiger Woods to immediately return to the dominant force we are accustomed to seeing?  After a 6-month absence from the game stemming from a massive adultery scandal that turned the sporting world upside-down, Tiger's return to professional golf has been less than spectacular.  In three tournaments, he has a T-4 in the Masters, a missed cut at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, and a withdrawal due to an apparent neck injury at The Players Championship.  This isn't the Tiger Woods the world is used to watching.  We have been conditioned over the past twelve years to a man who has little to no competition when at his best.  But, when will his best return?  The problem, from a fan's perspective, is that we hold Tiger on a high pedestal.  If any other golfer went through the media and tabloid circus that he did, no one would ever expect a swift and painless return.  However, this isn't just "anybody else."  This is, arguably, the greatest and most dominant player to ever step foot on a golf course and the most iconic athlete of the 21st century.  The world needs to leave Tiger alone and let him get his mojo back.  He's played merely a fraction of the golf of any other pro since last November.  The old Tiger will return, but not without a great deal of patience and hard work.  Once he learns to juggle it all, he will again be back in the winner's circle.
