you measure the best ever by the numbers

just like you are when you mention gretzky and jordan .

nicklaus has 18 majors and around 115 worldwide wins.

let me know when tiger gets there , then we can start the discussion...

tiger is in the foursome but he doesnt have the honor yet..

play away mr nicklaus.

No not yet....When Tiger passes Jack N. then he will be. No doubt he is one of the greatest now in the game in big tourneys, but lets see were he is in the next 5 years, alot can change. I can tell you one of the things that may hurt him is the way he swing's. As hard as he goes after the ball, could cause problems down the road on his body, as it could brak down. And lets see how the married life is, if and when he has kids. But right now he is the best pure Golfer out there.

you know why golf is great to bet on/watch? cuz there is no fixing, no referees whose decisions can affect an outcome. it is the player playing against the others.... for tiger to play against hundreds and come out on top week after week is unreal.

Something Jack never did - With his second Masters victory in 2001, Tiger became the first ever to hold all four professional major championships at the same time.

Maybe Woods is the best ever, but for some reason the competition seems less now then back in the 70's and 80's...I dunno, I don't follow golf really, just seems like there are less top players...I suppose maybe he's just that much better than the rest.

ID,

There are referee's that do make decisons that can affect the outcome of golf. They're called rules officials. And Tiger doesn't come out on top week after week. He's entered 14 events this year, won 4 times and missed one cut. But that's better than anyone else has done this year. Is he the best ever? Only time will tell. Is he the best of this generation? Yes.

that NIKE commercial showing tiger as a kid....was that really tiger hitting those balls? couldnt tell if it was edited.

Na, thats LeBron James, after some Powerade. Just like when he drained those full-courters one after another. :103631605

I won't say he's the best - yet. He is making it harder and harder to defend anyone else though.

I must get this of my chest: I DO NOT LIKE TIGER WOODS

I canot stand this guy for this reason. He will never let the act up. He will never act like one of the guys......He gets hounded constantly, and he never calls the game of golf....just GOLF.....Yes I am good at good, Yes I am great!!! But he never pays his respects to the game that does kick his azz sometimes.

Ok so many will say this is why he is so good, and has a great record. Maybe!!

I do know, he is a fix at some courses, versus other ones. I mean who in the hell will beat him at Pebble.....not many

Now he was just interviewed, and he had to add up his total shots over 2nd place in the Masters and Bristish....to offer perspective in this weeks PGA

Tiger Woods you are a great golfer, and will always be one of the best,

Stop being a BOY, and act like a MAN just once......Just once be a MAN with the media.

I don't understand what your issue is. He doesn't use the word "golf" when he talks about his play? :icon_conf

I don't like him either. There's something about his demeanor that reeks of "Pompous Ass".

Woods is a total jerk, word going around is he thinks he is bigger than the game


Announcers can't mention it as fear he will blackball them for interviews like he did to Jim Gray

I know some people i went to highschool with and i talk to some of them now,

granted i was a boisterous individual but i wasnt an asshole and treated every one from all different kinds of backgrounds the same way, but all the people who never spoke to me always said they thought i was an asshole for no real reason..


This thread reads like a bunch of school girls who are hating on some one for a reason that isnt even clear!!!!

HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU GONNA FORM AN OPINION ON SOME ONE BASED OFF A FRIGGIN INTERVIEW???


I have seen Tiger Woods in numerous interviews and so have many people i know, none of whom have ever said he is arrogant aloof or wayward..

He has always answered the questions asked of him in a clear concise and respectful way. He doesnt smile alot thats for sure but if you think Tiger woods is an asshole based on his interviews they you are about as useless as an infected impotent gonad!!!! (Your head must explode when you see the likes of T.O, Chad Johnson, K.Johnson, or pretty much any boxer even open their mouths!!!!


I cant even make heads or tails as to what the hell the topic starter is talking about...Its just a bunch of vague broad summations that one cant even figure out!!!!


Sorry but this whole thread is a whole bunch of bullshit name calling ignoramuses who are obviously hating on some one for no apparent reason!!!


Ps..Where i am from in this little one horse town of Nashville, i dont know a single journalist who is afraid of Tiger Woods, (i dont even know why they would be, being that Woods would probably never read any of our fish wrappers) they have all criticized his game and some times even aggresively when he was in a slump, none however ever said a bad word about his character....


Incidentally if he even close to the asshole you frauds are trying to make him out to be, then i wonder why the hell those throngs of people were clammering over each other at the british open, just to get a look at this so called jackass!!!!:digit:

people who work in the service industry in vegas say that he is the worst tipper and is very cheap...evidently his dad takes care of people though.
