  1. This equipment thing is ridiculous. Why didn't you say you want to see Jack play with equipment that Tom Morris Sr was using? When a player's peers use same equipment as that player, it really is a moot point, it doesn't matter because Tiger isn't playing against Jack and his equipment, and Jack isn't playing against Tom Morris and his equipment.
  2. I think there are couple of reasons why his current driving average is at 293 yards. 1. I believe he wasn't swinging as hard as he used to, because he was trying to protect his left leg 2. with 9.5* driver, he was spraying all over, because of attempting to make adjustment with better leg, forming a bad habit during down swing. 3. And because of his horrible driving, he has been hitting lot more 3-wood, until he went with 10.5* driver. I think once he trusts he leg, and correct the down swing (which he appears have improved, as we've seen during Jack's tourney), his distance will increase, imo.
  3. Perception doesn't change the fact that he actually have more Asian in his blood than Black.
  4. But why only for blacks? I like how you exclude Asian in him.
  5. This idiotic post is the reason why so many people on various boards detest you (other reason is number of lies) and you end up leaving because everyone makes fun of you and I see you haven't changed from past mistakes
  6. With last weekend's result, I think Tiger going to win it, but if he doesn't then I think Stenson has a good chance.
  7. I'm old enough and lucky enough to watch Jack and now Tiger, both are amazing players but I think Tiger is the greatest, even if he stopped playing right wow, but that's just me.
  8. This comparison is very difficult because of such difference between two sports. In tennis, a dominant player have much, much higher winning percentage, which is ~75%, whereas, in golf, anyone not named Tiger, a dominant player is winning ~12% of events entered. And because of this winning rate disparity, it's very hard to make the comparison without having both players winning percentage and their contemporary's winning percentage to see who has been more dominant in their respective sport. The greatest golfer of all time, Jack Nicklaus, has only winning percentage of 15% (I'm being bit generous) and in majors, he has a winning percentage of ~11%. Tiger's winning percentage is nearly twice that of Jack's at 29%, and in majors, it's at 30%. The winning percentage difference between golf's GOAT player and Tiger is simply astonishing. I venture to say Federer's winning percentage isn't nearly twice as tennis' GOAT. Federer is a great tennis player and I have no desire to diminish his achievement but he hasn't even dominated all of tennis players, Nadal has a winning record against him, not by few but by a big margin. No one in golf has head to head winning record against Tiger. Again, it is hard to make comparison, the only similarity of two sports is, it is an individual sport, but that's where similarity ends.
