Sports over the weekend

Tiger Woods made a sixteen foot putt on the final hole on Sunday to take home the victory.  The Arnold Palmer Invitational in Florida was Tiger's first win since his return from knee surgery.  After missing eight months due to his knee problem it was good to see him bounce back and get a win before the Masters in two weeks.  Tiger entered the final round on Sunday 5 strokes back of the leader, but being who he is regardless of the eight months away Tiger overcame the 5 stroke margin and won his sixth Arnold Palmer Invitational and for the second year in a row.  Tiger wasn't the only one who had a great weekend in sports.  The Villanova Wildcats advanced to the final four, and since they are a Philly team I have to root for them.  I do believe that they have what it takes to go all the way, especially after the finish they had against Pitt.  For the first time on over twenty years Nova is in the final four as well as North Carolina, Michigan State and Uconn.  Besides basketball and golf nothing too amazing happened besides the Flyers beating the New York Islanders on Saturday and losing to Boston on Sunday.  The Flyers are looking pretty solid heading into the playoffs this year with the most members of any team with 20 or more goals at 6,  the depth of the Fly guys is what will take them to the Finals this year and hopefully bring the cup back to Philly.
