Strange his last major came at the age of 32, while Mickelson won his first of 5 at the age of 33. He was 43 when he won his last. I thought it was inevitable Woods would go on to win 20 plus majors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, he's Tiger Woods for God sake, we can't judge him, we've never been in his position. He's a great man, he has needs, he thinks with his dick likes every other man. He's been in the zone for decades, he's one of the greatest sports people of all time. If his missus isn't doing the business anymore, he's not going to use his own hand ffs, he's Tiger Woods. He can have almost any woman he wants, when he wants. His missus would have still been babysitting or something if she had never met Tiger Woods, now she's worth 250 million. She got what she was after the day she met him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then yeah, everything fell apart, he went out of control, had tonnes of injuries etc.. Now he's back and people are rooting for him because if he wins majors now against all odds, it just shows how great he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion. Jack is the greatest for me. Titles, 2nds, etc... and how he conducted himself on and off the course. I think Tiger is a legend and was like Tyson, a phenomenon when young. But unlike Jack, they couldn't cope with fame and fortune and lost their way. Here's hoping Tiger can reclaim his game.

Victorian Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Nicklaus was a phenomenal player and winner, as was Woods, but Woods revolutionised the game more than Nicklaus did. As well as winning the majors he did when at his zenith, he also set some unheard of records along the way. Winning the Masters by 12 shots and the US Open by 15 shots. Winning any golf tournament by 15 shots is and was unimagineable. To win one of the hardest and most attritional tournaments at a venue as demanding as Pebble Beach should never have been possible. Nicklaus, while certainly great and talented, was more of an ultra-consistent stayer. Woods was spectacular and inspirational. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlimOzturk Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Everyone loves a character whether they are villians or heroes. Sport needs them.and Tiger is certainly the biggest character in Golf and one of the biggest in sporting history. The guys just box office. If he pulls off this comeback and wins a other major then it will go down as the biggest in history IMO. Will just cement his place as the best golfer in history. Wouldn't put it past him. I watched him winning the open on one leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ri Alban Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Here, I don't want to let out air in the tyres of yer Tiger band wagon. But he doesn't come close to Jack. 1st 18 2nd 19 3rd 9 4th 8 5th 2 Thats 56 top 5 finishes and 73 top 10. He finished the open from 63 to 82 in the outside the top 10 twice and top 5 4 times. He was in the top 5, 15 times in 20 years. So tiger, great as he is. Couldn't tie Jack's golf shoes. The end!

I don't think anyone has disputed how good a player Nicklaus was or the exceptional record he had in majors. Tiger is the main man though and going across the eras, he has played the last 20+ years at a time when competition and the standard of player has never been as high.

Koepka & Molinari are the ones who had the option of changing gears like Eldrick Tont Woods did in the past. The golf coverage directors of the past had an abundance of superstars to choose from and gave fair coverage to all players. These days every coverage director is hanging of Eldricks bell end. 14 majors is his lot, the guy can't hit 60 yard wide fairways FFS!
