Tiger Woods Wins Chevron World Challenge With Clutch Birdie On 18th Hole
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — After going more than two years and 26 tournaments without a win, and after so much turmoil in his personal life and with his golf game, Tiger Woods stood over a 6-foot birdie putt Sunday to win the Chevron World Challenge and felt as though nothing had changed. Finally, the outcome was familiar, too. Woods poured in the putt to cap off a birdie-birdie finish at Sherwood, close with a 3-under 69 and beat former Masters champion Zach Johnson by one shot. The win ended a drought that lasted 749 days, and might have signaled a change that Woods is on his way back. He swept his arm across the air, yelled through the din of the gallery and slammed his fist in a celebration that was a long time coming.

Missing Dog Reunited With Family After 8 Years
Wow. Quite frankly, [my husband] John and I just figured somehow she had gotten killed." Kristen Pruitt told Fredricksburg.com after being reunited with her mix breed pit bull Petunia who had been missing for eight years. The dog disappeared on the Saturday after Thanksgiving in 2003 from a family farm in Fredricksburg, Virginia, according to Fredricksburg.com. Somehow, eight years later, the dog ended up on the opposite side of the United States at an animal shelter in California. The shelter then used a microchip implanted in the dog to track down the dog owners, according to Fredricksburg.com. In a Skype interview with CBS13 Sacramento, Pruitt exclaimed upon seeing the dog,"Awwwwww. Look at her." Debra Luis, supervisor at the Yuba County Animal Control Office in California, told the Appeal Democrat about the dog's health. The Appeal Democrat reports Luis said "that the dog is in fine shape physically, though she also said there are signs the animal had not received enough nutrition in recent months."
New Girl' Cast Talks Zooey Deschanel And Behind-The-Scenes Nudity
We've heard all about how "adorkable" Zooey Deschanel is on her show "New Girl" but what about her equally endearing co-stars? The Daily sat down with the boys of "New Girl," Max Greenfield (Schmidt), Jake Johnson (Nick) and Lamorne Morris (Winston) to dish on everything we wanted to know (and somethings that we didn't) about TV's quirkiest show. The boys were all given the same questions, which ranged from nudity to Twitter feeds. And as you can imagine, the nudity ones were the most informative. Johnson gave some insight into some backstage not-so-sexiness. "There's this weird TV/movie underwear that they have you in, it's like clear skin. [Deschanel] saw way too much," he said. "When I'm in there, you see what my junk looks like. It's surprisingly hard," (watch your wording, fella!) he said, laughing, "because the whole crew could see."
Madonna: Super Bowl XLVI Halftime Show Performance In Indianapolis Confirmed
Madonna will perform at the Super Bowl XLVI Halftime show, the NFL confirmed on Sunday. The NFL championship game, which will take place on February 5th at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, will see the pop legend team up with Cirque du Soleil, her frequent collaborator Jamie King, and visual artists the Moment Factory in a telecast on NBC. The news was first reported back in October by SB Nation, though no official word has come until now. After Janet Jackson's infamous "wardrobe malfunction" in 2004, the NFL began going with older, classic rock performers for its marquee event. Paul McCartney came after Jackson and co-star Justin Timberlake; the next few years featured The Rolling Stones, Prince, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, Bruce Springsteen and then The Who. Last year, the game mixed it up, hiring The Black Eyed Peas, Usher and Slash.
