You'd have to flip through a script of The Young and the Restless to find a more dramatic character arch than Eldrick Tont Woods. After it was discovered that he'd been with more reality show castoffs than Brett Michaels, Tiger went from the greatest golfer ever to a bruised punchline. Battling through years of below average play and pornstar tell-alls, Woods is once again at the top of his game. 

The 2013 Masters Tournament begins today and all eyes will be on Tiger. Many believe that he's put his disgraced past behind him, but Complex Sports isn't going to let him get away that easy. Once again, it's time to ask: Badass or Jackass? The Rise, Fall, and Resurrection of Tiger Woods.
