Casey Martin returns after years and a lifetime away - Bruce Jenkins - San Francisco Chronicle - Tiger Woods, Martin's teammate and occasional roommate at Stanford, said that "unless you really know him, you don't realize the everyday pain he lives with. I saw it in college, and I don't know how he did it, to be honest with you. I really don't. He doesn't show it, doesn't talk about it, doesn't complain about it, he just lives with it. It would be so easy for him to be bitter, but I think that's what makes him special, so different from everyone else. He has such a strong will." - Watching Martin's pronounced limp over the course of a five-hour round, you began to realize that it's not about the cart, it's about fighting off that pain to stand over a golf ball, find a balanced, powerful swing and hone it to perfection. I wouldn't care if he flew the Concorde between holes. He's back at the U.S. Open, against all odds, and living a dream.
