Tiger Woods’ 2019 Masters win has inspired quite a collection of artwork

Vincent van Gogh famously said, “I dream my painting and I paint my dream.” And in the past two weeks since Tiger Woods won the 2019 Masters, it seems plenty of fans are taking this opportunity to paint (or draw) their golf dreams.

Woods' long-awaited fifth win at Augusta National capped one of the most remarkable comebacks in sports history. It has also inspired quite a collection of artwork. In recent days, a number of Tiger-related masterpieces have been shared on Reddit and social media. Here's a sampling:

Yasiel Puig wears shirt of himself fighting the Pirates, becomes instant Cincinnati legend

Cincinnati isn't exactly flush with sports heroes. The closest thing they have, Pete Rose, is blacklisted for the rest of eternity, and the rest of the list is populated by lovable but ultimately underwhelming cult favorites like Boomer and Ickey and Joey. Yasiel Puig has been in town for a veritable cup of coffee skyline chili, but he already looks well on his way to legend status after not only attempting to fight the entire city of Pittsburgh earlier this month, but then wearing a shirt of the brawl's most indelible image to BP on Tuesday. Reds fans, have you ever seen something so beautiful?

FacebookPinterestLike the city of Cincinnati (and the Let-The-Kids-Play baseball community as a whole), Derek Dietrich—who sparked the whole dust-up by staring down a homer off Chris Archer—is 115% on-board with Puig's new drip. Best of all, however, you don't have to be Puig to don this incredible moment in Cincy sports hi..

The Zurich Classic will again be using entrance music, and most of the song selections are as bad as you think

Chris Graythen(Photo by Chris Graythen/Getty Images)Because hell is real, the Zurich Classic of New Orleans is bringing back entrance music this weekend, allowing the tournament's two-man teams to select a walk-up song to be played on the first tee at TPC Louisiana on Saturday. While the concept was heralded upon its announcement last year, its debut and execution were anything but. Rather than emerge from a tunnel like a baseball closer or WWE wrestler, the golfers were already on the tee, and instead of a raucous crowd being electrified by the tunes blaring from the speakers, the fans…well, acted like golf fans:
Papelbon running into Fenway, this was not.
And then there were the songs selections. If our numbers are correct, half the field picked “Enter Sandman” or “Shipping up to Boston,” and most of the others were a mix of apathy and unoriginality. From our Shane Ryan last spring:
Charley Hoffman, Nick Watney, Brendan Steele and Jamie Lovemark all picked Tupac’s “California ..

Steph Curry was asked about one of his shooting habits, so naturally he answered by talking about golf

As is the case every NBA postseason, Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry seems to be locked in, save for one poor 1-for-9 three-point shooting performance in Game 4, which the Dubs still won 113-105. Prior to that, Chef Curry was 17-for-29 in the series, averaging just under 30 points per game. Much like a PGA Tour pro, Curry got his one bad round out of the way on Sunday, and we fully expect him to bounce back Wednesday night.

Speaking of golf, Curry's mind was on his real favorite sport during a media scrum on Tuesday, the day before a potential series-clinching Game 5 at home against the L.A. Clippers. A reporter asked the point guard about his habit of following the ball with his eyes after he shoots it. Naturally, Curry compared it to putting:
