Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

[coupe93]

With all due respect to Jack, my opinion is bias and limited only to what I've witnessed. I didn't take up the sport but 10 years ago and really did not follow Jacks career as I have Tigers. Tiger will have completely re-writen the record books well before he's eligable to play the seniors tour. I'm not sure if Jack was quite as dominant or has changed the landscape of the game as Tiger has. I'd say Tigers the man.

I'm a young guy, but to me Jack is awesome to watch play. Tiger is great in his own respect, but Jack tops the cake.

If it were a year ago I would say Tiger. But after his '4th' knee surgery, I do not know if he can have a career as long as Jack. We'll see.

Sorry guys, Hogan is the man!

[upndn]

Well I'm going to waffle.
The greatest is;
Bobby Jones in his time
Hogan in his prime
Then Jack had his
Now it's Tiger, will his bones withstand the stress he applies to continue his record breaking pace.......stay tuned.

I am sure it's only because I have just recently got into golf, but I have to go with Tiger. I wasn't old enough to see Jack in his prime and as most do, you go with what you know. I am a product of the hype machine.

I hope tiger wins every tournament he plays in. Period, he is the best to watch, his character, and attitude for the game. But Arnie is my favorite player of all time.

I grew up watching Arny, when Jack came along although a great player I could never bring myself to root for him, I'm hoping Tiger keeps playing long enough to break all the records.

as much as I love jack, I am going to say that tiger is still the top when it comes to Golf....

I enjoy watching both Golfers, and think that playing wiht or against both would be a great Honor, i have to give the edge to Tiger.

[abbello]

As newbie of golf (played for 2 years) I can only say that to me Tiger is a golf divinity.

[bergeRR]

but im more of a fan of johnny

[dpmille]

I wasnt alive to see Jack in his prime, but from clips I have seen I would still have to go with Tiger. When they show Tiger win the masters when he was 21 and destroy the entire field, it makes the decision a little easier for me.

[bogeymike]

Tiger is a golfing machine, I don't know if he is even categorized asa player. Nicklaus was a fantastic player and in my experience a much funnier and nicer guy than he appears on tv

[scottinkc]

Gotta go with Tiger

[theislandofpen]

Tiger. No one has ever had, nor will ever be able to match his focus for winning on and off the course.

[divotDan]

Although I think Tiger's the best, I watched Phil Mickelson laugh, smile, and high-five the fans at Riviera today. I wish Tiger could soften his game face and be more accessible to fans. I understand he's an intense competitor, but without the fans, he would not be as rich as he is.

[jonesc03]

Tiger for sure.

[jonesc03]

I think they both have been good for the game. I also believe that golfers are better athletes today than they were 30 years ago. No offense to those who played during Jack"s era, but Tiger is not only a great golfer with tremendous skill, he is an amazing athlete.
