When asked why he seems able to stand up to the game's greatest player when so many others fall flat, Yang joked Sunday that "I know Tiger isn't going to beat me up on the green. I just play cool and easy." But Yang also believes in his ability, saying that his success is no fluke.

But the real star is director and co-writer Neill Blomkamp, 29, who proves with his first feature that no genre is so tarnished...
