Hogan showed the best can achieve greatness after absence

From The New York Times Magazine: If Tiger Woods wins the Masters in his return to professional golf, he will have matched a feat seen just once before. To return from such a long layoff and win a major championship would prove that Woods actually can turn his game on and off at will. Both Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer said they could not imagine being away from the tour for so long and winning a major. But one golf great has done so before.
