Woods named player of the year...in other news, water is wet

Tiger Woods was named by his peers as the PGA Tour Player of the Year. Oh, did you know that you will eventually die? And--also, did you know that water is wet? Just checking. This announcement was about as lame as anything that's occurred on the Tour this year--not saying that Woods didn't deserve it, but geesh...it's such an anticlimactic thing at this point.

What did he do? He won seven tournaments, including the PGA Championship, his 13th major championship title, and captured the inaugural FedEx Cup, even though the entire tournament format and what not was pretty much an inaugural joke. In addition, his season was highlighted by wins in two World Golf Championships events, and he closed strong by winning two of the four events in the first-ever PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedEx Cup and four of his final five starts overall.

Oh, and he won close to 11 million--his second highest amount earned--so far.

So, the bigger surprise would be actually who got second. But really, does it matter?
