If there were any doubts that Tiger Woods is officially back, they’ve now been put to rest.

Woods held on to win the Tour Championship by two strokes Sunday, and was a serious contender to take home the FedEx Cup title. Justin Rose’s key birdie on the 18th ensured he finished the season as the top-ranked golfer in the world, but Woods’ performance stole the spotlight this weekend.

As expected, Twitter roared for Tiger’s first win since 2013. Here is some of the best reaction:
