A little kid in the crowd perfectly predicted that Tiger Woods would sink a long birdie putt

Tiger Woods caught fire Sunday at the Memorial Tournament, an event he’s won five times during his legendary career, as he charged up the leaderboard with a ton of birdies.

Woods, who was well back of the leader, Martin Kaymer, was able to climb into the top 10 with seven birdies over the first 12 holes of his final round.

And fans watching loved seeing him make his move and sharpen his game just a week and a half away from the start of the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach.

Tiger sunk a long birdie putt on the 11th hole and a young fan watching could be heard confidently saying, “that’s in the hole” as the ball made its way to the bottom of the cup:

Good call, kid.

Tiger’s game is quickly getting back to a place that many thought we’d never see again:

While he’s not going to win on Sunday after his final-round 67, this could all lead to a win a few Sundays from now.

Which would be fun.
