"Hello, world. There are still courses in the U.S. I'm not allowed to play because of the color of my skin."

"SportsCenter @ The Masters" coverage from Augusta National begins Wednesday, April 4, on ESPN, WatchESPN and the ESPN App.

It's hard to watch Tiger Woods play golf right now.

I don't mean that in the sense that it's hard to watch him, at 42 years old, try to recapture the glories of his astonishing, but now distant, prime. Quite the contrary. Yes, watching and writing about Tiger at his peak was a thrill. But I've grown to believe watching Tiger wrestle with time, seeing him relearning the rhythms of his body as he attempts to summon one last run at Jack Nicklaus' majors record, has a chance to be the most enjoyable era of his career.
