Woods has won eight out of his last 10 tournaments and is an even-money favorite to capture his fifth Masters, odds never before seen in golf.
The pressure of expectation is immense but he did little to play down speculation about a calendar grand slam with his declaration that it was "easily within reason."
Woods is the only professional to hold all four majors at the same time, sweeping them in a span of 294 days from the 2000 U.S. Open to the 2001 Masters.
He showed up at Augusta last year going for his third straight major only to be denied by Zach Johnson who will start two groups ahead of him, grouped with England's Luke Donald and Australia's Geoff Ogilvy, the 2006 U.S. Open champion.
Nothing seems out of reach to Woods, whose main opponent is history. He’s already got 13 major titles, with Jack Nicklaus’ 18 the only thing standing between him and being the sport’s greatest champio: A Grand Slam
