Hey, guess what sucked: 2020. Hey, guess what ruled: these songs. Is there any correlation, really, between the sucking and the ruling? Are these the jams that brought us together despite a year that tore us apart and whatnot? Who can say, really? We felt terrible a lot of the time; this music helped us feel better.

For his most devoted fans, watching Tiger Woods play golf has always been the can’t-miss main attraction of any tournament—but for much of the last decade it came with a built-in side show. There was a game within the game, one centered around a seemingly simple question that proved to have a surprisingly elusive answer: Who is Tiger Tracker?
