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

[golferbabu]

Even if Tiger stopped playing competitively today, I would have to say that Tiger has been a more dominant golfer than Jack, Don't get me wrong Jack Nicklaus is a legend in his own right.

It's pretty hard to compare players from different eras. But I like both Jack & Tiger. I voted for Jack based on poll question. But I think Tiger will going to have more majors than Jack before he retires.

Tiger...of course

tiger, no doubt: he will still be winning after he is 90

Too hard to compare. Tiger is the man today but if Jack had access to the same advances in modern technology as Tiger.........who knows?

[andre112]

Tiger is the man!!!!

Jack was the best in his day and with equipment we probably couldn't use, but more importantly had the mental game to win when it counted and come up with the shots that mattered and boy could he putt!
However...Tiger has more shot making ability & is a better player technically. When it comes to mental - no-one can out-do him. His mental strength is awesome & a major part of his game compared to competitors.

Head-to-Head my money is on Tiger but it would be close!

Even though I "grew up" on golf with Tiger, until El Tigre surpasses Jack's record of Majors, you have to give the benefit of the doubt to the Golden Bear.....the greatest ever (at least so far!)

not even gonna be a question in 10 more years tiger all the way

They are both magical, bigger than life. I will still lean towards Jack at this point. We will know what the numbers say in another ten years, but will numbers provide all the answers? For instance, who IS the greatest home run hitter... Henry Aaron or Barry Bonds?

To both his advantage and disadvantage, Tiger still has a lot of career left to establish his place. Thank goodness we get him for many years to come.

In Jack's day, it was always Jack and Arnie. Competition seemed limited. I think golphers as a whole are better these days, and Tiger can handle a higher level of competition. On the other hand, I'd say Jack was a more gracious golpher.

[flash]

Jack is #1 because he has more major wins and more tour wins.PERIOD

Jack, cause his physic looks like most of the players I see on the course.

[Anwell]

I would say Tiger because some of the shots he made were ridiculous

[Guest]

I for Tiger. He's not just any phenomenon. I expect him to make history and records that will remain untouched for centuries to come.

I only really know about tiger, but my dad would probley go for jack, but in my mind how can you not love a guy named Eldrick. thats just awsome, plus his dad was SF

Well, I voted for Tiger but I do have a cool story about Jack. Growing up, my family had a home in Carmel, CA. Believe it or not, Jack Nicklaus use to rent our house from time to time. President Ford (I belive), may have been another President also rented our home. Growing up I never appreciated the game of golf. Since I started playing four years ago and also introduced my son Skyler to the game.

I think Tiger will be the greatest.
