To watch Tiger Woods and his son play golf over the weekend was to feel a kaleidoscope of emotion.
Goodness, it was something to see Tiger back. It was just 10 months ago when his S.U.V. tumbled off the road in suburban Los Angeles. He nearly died. He had to be pried from the overturned wreck of mangled metal with the Jaws of Life. His injuries, including compound fractures in his right leg, were so severe that doctors discussed amputation.
He spent nearly a month in the hospital, and three more laid up in bed.
